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 five permanent supportive housing facilities in CT:
- Atlantic Park Apartments: 27 studio apartments
- Colony Apartments: 29 studio apartments
- Metcalf House: 10 single residency apartments
- Rose Park Apartments: 3 two-bedroom apartments
- McKinney House: 15 single residency units
- Summer Place: 48 studios and one-bedroom apartments
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.
