Will a Felon get section 8 housing in KY?

It all depends on what type of felony that person is convicted of. If the person must register in his state as a sex offender, the felony is of violent or drug nature, or the felony involves public assistance fraud, then by federal regulations the Housing Authority cannot accept this person into the voucher program. And the Housing Authority may have its own rules of whom they may exclude as convicted felons from their programs. Most often than not they include felonies of any kind of less than 5-7 years from the date of release from incarceration or supervision, whichever later occurred.
