We also hope you will be able to navigate and find the information and assistance that's available from our programs with ease.

The Housing and Neighborhood Services (HNS)Web Site was created
so all residents,participants, landlords, local officials and other interested
parties may be informed on the activities and programs at HNS.

At HNS our mission is to provide community service programs designed to meet the needs of the Grand Prairie community and its citizens for housing, healthy and safe neighborhoods, economic development, neighborhood revitalization, in an efficient, timely, courteous and knowledgeable manner. The city's Housing and Neighborhood Services offers programs designed to assist

the low-to-moderate income Grand Prairie residents with safe, affordable housing.

Housing and Neighborhood Services does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, familial status, age, religion or handicap, in compliance with the Fair Housing Act, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

I would like to encourage you to be sure and visit the rest of our site. You will be able to learn more about our many programs and policies that effectively assist the Grand Prairie community.

Again, thank you for visiting our web site. Should you have any questions to ask after viewing our site regarding a program or to communicate a concern, please feel free to send me an e-mail at Bhills@gptx.org and I would be most happy to help in any way possible.
