Blueprint to End Homelessness
Partners in Housing, an Indianapolis non-profit developer specializing in housing for the homeless and other special needs tenants, will begin major rehabilitation work on several 70-year-old buildings this fall. Using the innovative concept of "supportive housing," the 106 units will be linked with an array of social services to provide counseling, job training and placement, access to mental and physical health care and other forms of assistance to help the low-income tenants stay housed and healthy. NUVO's Summer Wood talks to the developer, potential tenants, and community leaders about the plan and its pros and cons.
