Bridgeport Housing Authority — Local services in Bridgeport

Horrible… I had been approved for their section 8 waitlist.. after moving into housing I was having issues with my son not sleeping or feeling safe/comfortable in my home due to the environment and I went to their office to ask for help after a gentlemen over the phone told me I was on the section 8 list and I should be expecting a call around August that was in March I go in about end of June to ask for assistance in trying to get it sooner to get out of housing for them to tell me I am not on the list and they have no application for me after I’ve sent letters to them updating my information when it came to number and address change.

He’s 76! He’s not a troublemaker or...
