Housing
- Guide to Affordable Housing in New Jersey - Identifies developments with apartments or houses affordable to low- and moderate-income families. The Guide does not list every affordable unit in New Jersey, nor does it include all special needs housing. It also includes a list of State and local offices that may be of assistance.
- New Jersey Housing Resource Center - Provides an online tool for finding affordable housing, helping people with disabilities find housing options, and obtaining housing information and links. It is free and anonymous.
- Public Housing Authority Contact Information - Has lists of public, low income and affordable housing as well as applications for Section 8 vouchers for their respective municipality.
Homelessness, Shelters, and Emergency Housing
- The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has a complete list of shelters and emergency housing, organized by county. You may also contact the NJ Information and Referral agency in your county.
