Building Futures: Creating More Family Supportive Housing in New York City Supportive housing is a proven solution to fighting homelessness while saving public costs. For families experiencing significant barriers to housing stability, permanent supportive housing is a tested model for addressing the housing and service needs of these vulnerable families and ending their homelessness. Yet the development of supportive housing for families lags far behind the demand and the need. This paper, co-authored by Enterprise, the Corporation for Supportive Housing, and the Supportive Housing Network of New York, explores the reasons for this lag, and proposes solutions for overcoming barriers to development to make more supportive housing for families a reality in New York City. |
