Community Supportive Housing

Community Supportive Housing provides safe, permanent housing with wraparound services for adults with serious mental illness or co-occurring disorders. The program funds agencies to offer supervised and non-supervised group homes and apartments, as well as individualized housing plans that promote independent living, employment, wellness, and community engagement. Integrated within this program are targeted transitional supports (Community Targeted Transitional Support Program) that provide short-term, flexible financial assistance—such as help with rental deposits, utilities, vision and dental care—to reduce immediate barriers to housing stability. By combining supportive housing with transitional assistance, the program delivers both long-term housing solutions and short-term interventions that help individuals successfully transition from inpatient or crisis settings into the community. Together, these supports reduce homelessness, prevent psychiatric hospitalizations, and promote recovery and sustained community living.
