Thanks to the efforts of Inspector Trainer Derrick Ratliff and Regional Account Manager KK Dawson, 50 staff members from Guam Housing and Urban Renewal Authority (GHURA) received quality training in Project-Based Maintenance Management and UPCS Fundamentals last month.

The Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) helps households who have lost income due to COVID-19 receive funding and stay in their homes. It's a big help for renters — but for state and local governments, it can be challenging to disburse these funds.

Over forty years, NMA has built a reputation for excellence through on our work in the PIH program (including HCV, PBV, and public housing), multifamily program, LIHTC, CDBG-DR, and more. With projects ranging from training to consulting to administering more than 100,000+ vouchers, NMA has steadily grown into a leader in the industry.

Today Nan McKay & Associates celebrated the opening of a new company office in downtown Houston. The Texas office joins the NMA team as the eighth location nationwide, with other offices currently in San Diego, California; Miami, Florida; Tallahassee, Florida; Chicago, Illinois; Frankfort, Kentucky; Georgetown, Kentucky; and New Orleans, Louisiana. The Louisiana office, located in Jefferson Parish, is the most recently opened office preceding Houston. NMA began administering the Housing Authority of Jefferson Parish (HAJP)'s housing choice voucher program last autumn.

Families participating in the housing choice voucher (HCV) program of Jefferson Parish, Louisiana will soon have a new program administrator. Nan McKay and Associates (NMA) will begin administering the Housing Authority of Jefferson Parish (HAJP)'s HCV program as of October 1, 2018. Jefferson Parish is the second largest parish in Louisiana, with a population of about half a million people.
