The Resident Advisory Board (RAB) provides the PHA and the residents with a forum for sharing information about the Agency‘s Annual Plan. Section 511 of the United States Housing Act and the regulations in 24 CFR part 903 require that PHAs establish one or more Resident Advisory Board(s) (RAB) as part of the PHA Plan process. RAB membership is comprised of individuals who reflect and represent the residents assisted by the PHA. The role of the RAB is to assist the PHA in developing the PHA Plan and in making any significant amendment or modification to the plan.

The main role of the RAB is to make recommendations and provide input on any significant amendments or modification in the development of the PHA Plan.

The Resident Advisory Board is comprised of a jurisdiction-wide resident council. Resident Councils are duly elected tenants (18 years an older) of the Asset Management Project or building (ex.
