West Helena Housing Authority Public Housing Waiting List

As of July 2017, the West Helena Housing Authority (WHHA) is currently accepting Public Housing waiting list pre-applications for families and senior/disabled households.

To apply, visit the WHHA office to pick up a pre-application, located at 115 N 3rd St., West Helena, AR 72390, from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm CT, Monday-Friday.

Once the pre-application has been completed, it must be hand delivered to the address above, from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm, Monday-Friday.

Be sure to include these documents with the pre-application: Social Security Cards and birth certificates for all household members, proof of all income, and photo IDs for all adult household members.

Important note: Applicants will receive a confirmation number when either applying, or being placed on the waiting list, depending on housing authority policy. It is important to keep that number in a safe, easy to access place. It will be needed any time when referencing the pre-application with the housing authority.

If any application information changes from the time the original was submitted (such as contact information, income, and household members), inform the housing authority immediately. In the case that the office sends a notice that does not get returned, or if application information is out of date, the applicant's name may be terminated from the waiting list. Please contact the housing authority to find out its policy on updating pre-application information.
