supportive housing

Supervised living arrangement

Supportive housing combines affordable housing with on-site services—case management, mental health care, addiction treatment—for people who would otherwise struggle to maintain stable housing.

The model targets chronically homeless individuals, those with serious mental illness, or people exiting institutions.

The city opened three new supportive housing buildings for veterans.
