Article highlights:
- The National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) is launching its Second Health and Housing Institute. The goal of the institute is to help states break down inter-agency silos and strengthen services and supports to help low-income and vulnerable populations become and remain successfully housed. Permanent supportive housing programs require affordable housing and housing-related services financed by Medicaid. Importantly, the new institute will focus on state deployment and execution of newly available federal resources.
- With the passage of ARPA and the proposed American Jobs Plan, the following are new programs, policy, and funding opportunities:
- Eviction Prevention and Affordable Housing
- Supportive Housing and Homelessness Assistance
- Home- and Community-Based Services
