We can also accommodate those who are physically challenged. Senior accommodations include off-street parking, social clubs, and on-site laundry facilities.

Besides providing quality housing the PHA provides assistance to individuals and families with low income to become self-sufficient through on-site services and programs in our community building. GED & ESL (English as a Second Language) classes, computer training, and NORWESCAP Head Start are just to name a few. Funding is available for job training, Firth Youth Center membership, and students who achieve honor roll. Residents can become involved with their community by joining our Resident Advisory Board.
