The Outagamie County Housing Authority is a public body, corporate and politic, duly created, organized and existing under the provisions of Wisconsin state statutes.  It was created by the Outagamie County Board in 1972 with a mandate to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing for low and moderate income persons.  Five commissioners, appointed by the County Executive, and confirmed by the County Board, set policy for the programs in which the Authority becomes involved.
