BACKGROUND
Organizational Background
The mission of the Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee (HACM) is to
foster strong, resilient, and inclusive communities by providing a continuum of
high-quality housing options that support self-sufficiency, good quality of life, and
the opportunity to thrive.
Chartered by the State of Wisconsin in 1944, HACM is governed by a seven-
member Board of Commissioners who are appointed by the Mayor of the City of
Milwaukee and confirmed by the Milwaukee Common Council. HACM’s
programs are funded and regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (“HUD”). To learn more about HACM and its history,
mission, and programs, Respondents are encouraged to visit HACM’s website at
www.hacm.org.
HACM is the largest public housing authority (PHA) in Wisconsin, providing
affordable housing options for over 10,000 low-income households in Milwaukee
City and Milwaukee County. HACM’s seven-member board of commissioners
meet monthly. The Assistant Secretary-Executive Director is responsible for the
day-to-day operations of the Agency. HACM wholly owns two instrumentalities
(subsidiaries); Travaux, Inc., HACM’s development, construction and property
management subsidiary and Crucible Inc. that manages the community
supportive services program for HACM.
HACM operates Low Income Public Housing developments; mixed-finance
housing developments, typically with low income housing tax credit funding
(LIHTC) and with a number of Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) and
regular Project-Based Voucher (PBV) subsidized units; Non-HUD subsidized
(market rate) housing developments; Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), also
known as the Section 8 rent assistance program; and Homeownership through
the Section 8(y) and Section 32 programs.
