The mission of the RAB is to empower low to moderate income level residents including Housing Choice Voucher recipients in their quest to become self-sufficient by advocating for the needs and collaborating with other organizations to ensure that services are provided. The members of RAB plays a significant role in helping to develop the Annual PHA Plan and the Admissions and Occupancy Policies. The input given by the RAB helps Jacksonville Housing to continue providing clean, safe and affordable housing to low to moderate citizens in this community.
