Residents of this development are required to pay 30% of their income towards rent while the HACC subsidizes the remainder. The Grove Apartments is a permanent supportive housing community with one-bedroom project-based voucher (PBV) units. Applicants currently on the HACC’s Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program wait list will receive a preference over other applicants.
Eligibility
To be eligible for housing at the Grove Apartments, applicants cannot have income that exceeds the very-low income limit of 50% AMI, which is as follows:
$36,650 for a 1-person household

The Village of Oak Park has set occupancy standards for housing based on the square footage of the units. The units at the Grove are small one-bedroom units and may be tough to accommodate households with more than one person.
