Eviction: Are all tenants on lease doomed?

Scenario: As a land lord, you have 3 tenants on Section 8 in NYC. The head of house hold (father), the mother and the daughter. The father was the bread winner but he got Alzheimer’s and started to forget making payments and got an eviction letter. So the daughter went to court and fought for her father with his GAL. They have been charged market rent for the months that he missed payments + quarantine months and now owes 15k.

The only solution I came up with is: just move out because they would have to pay market rent + 15k and that would be hard to afford. But if the eviction goes on her father record does it affect everyone on the lease? Would they be able to find another place to live?

I'm not speaking from experience in NY, only Ohio, but I think it depends on who was listed as financially responsible on both the HAP and the lease.
