联邦住房选择代金券计划目前是美国为低收入家庭提供负担得起的租赁住房的主要战略之一。该计划围绕两个目标设计：第一，维护美国住房和城市发展部提供安全、体面和负担得起的住房的使命；第二，促进家庭居住地点的选择，以期此类选择可以利用其他类型的非住房机会，为受助家庭提供机会。虽然学术研究描述了与代金券补贴相关的一系列积极和消极的家庭结果，但人们对这些结果是如何在实地产生的知之甚少。这项研究描述了对伊利诺伊州房东和其他代金券计划利益相关者进行的72次深入采访的结果，目的是将房东的做法与租户的结果联系起来。这项研究的结果强调了房东对受助家庭居住地点选择和保有权的重大影响，并显示出代金券计划设计的潜力，以更积极地与房东接触，作为延伸到住房单元之外的支持的提供者。
The federal Housing Choice Voucher Program currently serves as one of the nation's predominant strategies for providing affordable rental housing for low-income households. The program is designed around two goals: first, to uphold the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's mission to provide safe, decent, and affordable housing; and second, to facilitate household residential location choices, with the idea that such choices can leverage other types of nonhousing opportunities for assisted households. While scholarly research has described a range of positive and negative household outcomes associated with the voucher subsidy, less is known about how those outcomes are produced on the ground. This research describes findings from 72 in-depth interviews with Illinois landlords and other voucher program stakeholders regarding their experiences with the program, with the goal of linking landlord practices to tenant outcomes. Findings of this research underscore the substantial influence that landlords have on assisted-household residential location choice and tenure, and show the potential for voucher program design to more actively engage with landlords as providers of supports that extend beyond the housing unit.
