Signature Initiatives

Through collaboration with local communities, we design initiatives that meet their unique needs and facilitate pathways that create and preserve quality supportive housing. Our multi-sector work and signature initiatives offer the tools, training, and expertise to identify what communities need to tackle the urgent crises of homelessness, lack of affordable housing, and disconnected systems and services.

We develop solutions that increase housing stability for families and youth involved in foster care and reduce the risk of child welfare interactions.  We bring multi-sector partners together to expand access to housing and services for children, families, and young adults.  

We advance innovative programs and models, strategies to transform systems, and policy advocacy so that individuals impacted by the justice system can access quality affordable housing and supportive services to finally end their cycle of homelessness and institutionalization.  Our work demonstrates that communities that invest in housing reduce overall costs associated with shelters, policing, jails, and prisons.

Increasingly, states recognize that investing in housing and services can reduce their overall healthcare costs. CSH is leading innovative approaches that integrate housing with Medicaid, managed care, and the work of health centers. We collaborate with our partners to advance housing and health care system connections.  

With half of all adults experiencing homelessness being over 50, the supportive housing field must re-imagine how they deliver quality housing and services. We provide the tools and solutions to promote quality, accessible supportive housing that meets the physical and mental health needs of people with a history of engagement with public systems and homelessness.

Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) should have access to a range of community-based housing options and flexible services that help them thrive.
