Helping people achieve independence
We provide stable, long-term housing with integrated support services.
A residential program paired with essential support
Many of the people we serve suffer from disabilities (physical and mental) that make living independently in the community impossible without significant support. Permanent Supportive Housing is the answer.
Rents for tenants are affordable (30% of a person's income, whatever it may be) and substantive "wrap around" support services are provided on-site. For people with significant barriers, permanent supportive housing is the only option for exiting homelessness.
We operate nine permanent supportive housing facilities in CT:
- Atlantic Park Apartments: 27 studio apartments
- Colony Apartments: 29 studio apartments
- McKinney House: 15 beds in 2 suites
- Metcalf House: 10 single residency apartments
- Rose Park Apartments: 3 two-bedroom apartments
- Summer Place: 48 studio and one-bedroom apartments
- Gilead House: 13 bed residential program and 3 bed jail diversion transitional housing
- Inspire House: 13 bedroom communal living housing
- Community Support Program (CSP): Case Management Services provided to individuals living independently throughout Stamford and Norwalk
Our permanent supportive housing program goes beyond providing a safe place to live. Residents receive on-site case management and have access to a comprehensive network of support services. This includes job training, educational opportunities, and assistance with finding and keeping employment. We also partner with healthcare providers to ensure residents have access to medical, dental, mental health, and substance disorder treatment services – all crucial elements for building a stable and fulfilling life.
