Summary

Housing Choice Voucher Mobility Demonstration Act of 2018

This bill authorizes the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to implement a mobility demonstration program to enable public housing agencies to administer housing-choice rental-assistance vouchers in a manner designed to (1) encourage low-income families receiving such assistance to move to lower-poverty areas, and (2) expand access to opportunity areas.

HUD shall require public housing agencies applying to participate in the program to submit a specified Regional Housing Mobility Plan.
