Description
A 60-unit building with 20 units reserved for the Supportive Housing Program. Provides long-term or permanent housing for residents 55 years and older in a setting where they can access the support services they require to live successfully in the community. Services provided include identifying service gaps and subsequent linkage to community services, networking with service providers, and support in maintaining independence through creation of a housing support plan.
Heat, air conditioning, hot water, and electric are included in the rent. All 20 units are fully furnished and include start-up items such as linens, dishes, silverware, and pots and pans. Apartments feature a fully equipped kitchen with a range, refrigerator, and microwave, and a wall-mounted flat screen TV including basic cable service and in-unit storage. On-site laundry facilities are available at no cost to the tenant. Tenants have access to a community room, lounges, and a computer lab. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available in common areas in the buildings. Buildings are 100 percent smoke free, with designated smoking areas provided outdoors. There is also off-street parking.
Tenants will be assigned to a housing specialist on-site to assist with linkages in the community, provide advocacy, and guide tenants on how to maintain an apartment. Housing specialists are on-site Monday through Friday during business hours. The program will be staffed with security on overnight and weekend shifts. Tenants will need to have significant independent living skills to maintain their apartment.
