How the waitlists work
Is Section 8 open in Aurora?+
Usually not. Both the tenant-based and project-based Housing Choice Voucher lists have been closed, with no announced reopening. When a lottery opens, AHA announces it on their site, in the Aurora Sentinel, and by email list.
What IS open right now?+
The Fletcher Gardens senior (62+) affordable list has been accepting applications since May 2025 until 200 applications arrive. Other project-based and senior properties cycle — check the status table above.
How does the lottery work?+
When a list opens you apply during the window; applicants are drawn by lottery, not first-come order. If your contact info or household changes, file an AHA Waitlist Update Form — positions shift constantly.
Need housing urgently?+
AHA does not provide emergency housing except via the Continuum of Care or victim-service referrals. Call 2-1-1 Colorado for same-week options and Comitis Crisis Center (303-343-9890) for shelter intake.
