Phenix City Housing Authority’s Resident Services offers programs to encourage our residents to become more self-sufficient, healthy, and financially independent. Our Resident Services Department is designed to help improve the resident’s quality of life while building healthy communities. The Resident Services component makes supportive services and programs available to residents and promotes personal growth and family stability.

 

Resident Services collaborates with local service providers and other nonprofits to bring resources to our residents. These services are provided on-site or through a referral system. Our Resident Services programs focus on education, employment, youth, financial literacy, and health and include:
