 However, the official name of program is standardized within the federal government so that federal agencies can maintain better accountability of their assigned assistance.For example, an individual who receives rent assistance payments through the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program might not know the exact official name of the program, and may simply call it the "rent subsidizing" program, due to its type of activity or service.However, there are many other federal rent subsidizing programs, which require standard program names to differentiate them.
