Housing Services

Affordable and accessible housing is the bedrock of a safe and healthy life. Whether you need personal or financial support to remain in your home, or wish to transition into assisted living or a nursing home in your community, there are resources available.

Assisted Living

Assisted living communities provide housing and support services for older adults who need help with some activities of daily living but want to maintain their autonomy and independence as much as possible. Services offered vary, but can include personal care, medication monitoring, medical management, and meal preparation.

Community Housing

Community housing provides support to help low- and moderate-income older adult residents live as independently as possible. On-site services may include meals, housekeeping, medication management, and limited personal assistance with activities such as bathing, dressing, and laundry.​

Rental Assistance Voucher Program

Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental subsidies in the form of vouchers to eligible families or individuals to use toward housing payments.

Energy Assistance

Home Repair Financing Programs

Home repair programs can improve the comfort, safety, and accessibility of single-family homes of eligible homeowners through grants and loans to finance rehabilitation and renovation. Some programs are also available to eligible owners of multi-unit rental properties.

Energy Upgrade Programs
