New Jersey Department of Human Services -- Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD)

Housing subsidies funded through DDD are available to eligible individuals and distributed through the Supportive Housing Connection. Individuals who receive a DDD rental subsidy are required to contribute a certain amount of their income toward rent. The remaining rent amount is paid directly to the provider or landlord. Subsidy amounts are subject to State-determined maximums by county or zip code.
