Supportive housing
Supportive housing is owned and operated by nonprofit organizations, with regular oversight from city, state and federal agencies.
- Housing will be either:
- “Congregate,” where supportive services can be accessed on-site where a tenant lives, or
- “Scattered-site,” in which individual apartments are rented from existing market housing throughout the city.
- Tenants have leases or lease-like agreements.
- Rent cannot exceed one-third of tenants’ income, and property management and services are provided by nonprofit organizations.
- The range of services offered is flexible and depends on the needs of the tenants. They can include mental and medical health care, vocational and employment services, independent living skills training, substance abuse counseling, and referrals to community providers.
