What is Permanent Supportive Housing?

Permanent Supportive Housing combines voluntary, flexible support services with housing to help adults with disabilities choose, obtain, and keep a place to live that is decent, affordable, and safe. Central to the program is the idea that people with disabilities should have the right to live in a home of their own, without any special rules or service requirements.

Placement into Permanent Supportive Housing is done through the Coordinated Entry System. To access Coordinated Entry:

Call 211 or text HOPE to 20121
Go to a CARE center
Connect with CORE mobile Outreach by calling 211

For permanent housing options for youth ages 18-24, see Permanent Connections.
