In response to COVID-19, the Lawrence Housing Authority offices are closed to the public until further notice.
Even though our offices are closed to the public, our employees are coming to work to ensure continuity of services to our residents and program participants.
If you are reporting a change, you can either email, mail, or fax the information to your assigned caseworker or site manager. As correspondence is received, we will do our best to answer as soon as possible.
We have installed cameras outside our staffed office sites with motion sensors and the ability to directly communicate with you. There are also “drop boxes” installed to allow you to leave any documents without direct contact. Please note that these boxes are checked periodically during the day—NOT at night.
For any and all maintenance-related calls to our offices or answering service, we will be responding ONLY to emergencies until further notice.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, as we all try to remain safe and healthy.
