Permanent Supportive Housing

These agencies are in a class by themselves. To be considered for P.S.H. an individual must have a severe disability and considered to be at risk of dying if left on the street. That disability could be physical, a severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) or substance addiction. Most of these places will not let you just walk up and request entry into their program; you MUST have a coordinated entry assessment done to validate your vulnerability based on the above criteria. Someone from C.E. will contact you after a couple weeks and refer you if there’s an opening. Roof Above also does a good job of explaining their PSH program which accounts for four of the facilities listed below.

In the table above, “RA” stands for Roof Above and “SHC” stands for Supportive Housing Communities. Many thanks to Hannah who supplied the diagram below to us. It helps illustrate how the 10 different PSH facilities are linked together.
