The Philadelphia Housing Authority's website briefly crashed on Monday as it opened its voucher program for affordable housing for the first time in over a decade.
President and CEO of the Philadelphia Housing Authority Kelvin Jeremiah told FOX 29's Monica Evans that once all the applications are submitted, the department will select 10,000 applicants through a lottery system. The first 2,000 will be given a voucher while the others will remain on the waitlist.
The vouchers pay about 70% of the applicants rent and allows them to look for homes in the private market that are not owned and operated by the Housing Authority.
