Units are equipped with stove, refrigerator, garbage disposal, blinds, cable ready, and washer/dryer hookups. Some units are designed to accommodate those who are mobile by wheelchair as well as those who are hearing and/or visually impaired. Located at 4801 E. Navada, Sojourner Truth Homes has its own Community Room for your family activities as well as after hour emergency maintenance assistance.

Charles Terrace is comprised of 2 and 3 bedroom apartment homes. The units provide blinds for window coverings, its cable ready, has a garbage disposal, stove, refrigerator and washer/dryer hookup. Also, there are units for those who are mobility-impaired and an after hour emergency maintenance call system. Charles Terrace is located at 4801 E. Nevada.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Charles Terrace/ Sojourner Truth participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
