Welcome to Salem Housing Authority

Welcome to the Salem Housing Authority (SHA). The SHA provides public housing to low and moderate income families, seniors and people with disabilities. Our mission is to provide decent, safe and sanitary public housing to those in need. We maintain 180 units in three apartment complexes. 

We also manage 30 housing choice vouchers. This program allows participants to secure housing from private-sector landlords. The majority of our clients have used the vouchers within Cumberland County. However, many people have taken advantage of the program’s portability feature to secure housing throughout the United States that better suited their wants and needs.


 Effective May 1, 2020, the Salem Housing Autority has switched to accepting online applications only. Applicants who have successfully submitted their waitlist application can check their status online. Links to our online application and waitlist status can be found on our home page and under the Programs tab.
