Supportive Housing combines rental assistance with support from a qualified provider in an apartment setting. The goal of Supportive Housing is to ensure that you have the right supports to be successful and a place where you choose to live that is safe and affordable.


Supportive housing includes:

  • A home that’s right for you. - A qualified provider works with the landlord or property manager to ensure the apartment meets your needs. Some homes might be equipped with special features and assistive technologies.
  • Support services from a qualified provider. - You may have a support person during the day and night.
  • Rental assistance. - DDS works with the Department of Housing (DOH) and the Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) to keep supportive housing affordable and available.
