The Benefits of Housing First
Studies from across the country found that when we combine affordable housing with services, people stayed housed, even when they had a long history of homelessness.
The Benefits of Housing First
For people who have experienced chronic homelessness, long-term services and support may be needed. The vast majority of homeless individuals and families fall into homelessness after a housing or personal crisis. For these households, the Housing First approach provides them with short-term assistance to find permanent housing quickly and without conditions. In turn, such households often require only brief, if any, support or assistance to achieve housing stability and individual well-being.
