In the state of Texas, The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs is the branch in charge of government housing. Established in 1991 after the merging of the Texas Housing Agency and the Texas Department of Community Affairs, this department provides organization and direction for policies and programs on the local level. In the past sixty years, over 1 million Texans have lived in government housing. For many of these people, government housing is the only thing standing between them and homelessness.
