• A family that includes an elderly or disabled member in the household not living in East Orange, New Jersey.
• Families requiring relocation from EOHA public housing as a result of redevelopment. In addition, families requiring relocation from EOHA public housing due to an under-housed situation will receive this preference.
• Families displaced by a government action or by a formally declared natural disaster

600 applicants were to be placed on the waiting list by random lottery, weighed by order of preferences. The winning confirmation numbers will be posted on the EOHA website on October 15, 2024.
