About LCHA Low Rent Public Housing Housing Choice Voucher Program News and Events

The Lake County Housing Authority (LCHA) is working to change the face of public housing in Lake County, IL. As one of the leading housing authorities in Illinois, our agency provides housing and housing related services for over 11,000 citizens of Lake County.

We provide safe, decent and sanitary housing for the most vulnerable members of our community. Our team consists of dedicated management and housing professionals. With the continued leadership and assistance of our Board of Commissioners we remain confident and excited about being aggressive in the housing arena. LCHA continues to play a vital role in maintaining the health of our community by building strong public and private partnerships, maintaining a high standard of property maintenance, and helping low-income families move toward economic self-sufficiency.
 
I believe our future success depends on our willingness to offer our very best to the public as professionals who can demonstrate they care about people and the community in which they live, work and play! We must all come together - residents, staff, local and county governments, businesses, partners, developers and other stakeholders in our mission/commitment to serve the Lake County community with housing opportunities and options.
 
Sincerely,

David A. Northern, Sr. – Executive Director
