  National Resources for Supportive Housing

These publications available from the Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH) offer invaluable insight into ending homelessness through the creation of Permanent Supportive Housing. Avalon has parnered with CSH since 1996, when CSH began working in Michgan, and Arbordale Apartments were the first CSH-sponsored units developed in Michigan.

Focusing on homeless families, Home Works offers effective tools and strategies used by supportive housing providers. Laying a New Foundation outlines tools, lessons and strategies supportive housing advocates use to implement system change at state and local levels. Estimating the Need is a guide for creating and using a survey of homeless persons to project the need for permanent supportive housing.
