Lewiston Housing COVID 19 Updates

For the safety of our residents, employees, and community, all Lewiston Housing offices are closed to the general public until further notice. While our physical offices are still closed due to COVID-19, Lewiston Housing is still open. We’re continuing to work to provide affordable housing, and many of our operations have moved online.
