BHA is governed by a five member Board of Commissioners, who are appointed by Burlington's Mayor. Our policies and priorities are established through a Five Year/Annual Plan. We receive most of our funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which has rated us a High Performer.

We manage over 600 affordable apartments and provide rental assistance to over 1,700 families living in our jurisdiction, which is the City of Burlington and a number of surrounding communities.

Our resident services programs help families we assist in maintaining their housing, achieving economic self sufficiency and working toward homeownership.
