Single parents who are struggling with finding appropriate housing can use the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Resource Locator. This locator can help find affordable housing near you, the local HUD office, the local public housing authority or agency (PHA) and affordable senior housing and for those who have special needs.
Rental assistance programs with qualified income limits, HUD Section 8 housing vouchers, state-sponsored housing and HUD low-income public housing can also be options if single parents qualify.
