Supportive Housing

Supportive Housing

Supportive Housing combines rental assistance with support from a qualified provider in an apartment setting.  The qualified provider works with the landlord or property manager to ensure the apartment complex meets the needs of the tenants and is well maintained.  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.
