Towards A New Bill of Rights
Members of the Dream Team frequently discuss the transformational possibilities of permanent supportive housing, as many of our members have experienced homelessness, or housing instability, at some point in their lives. The majority credit their ability to stay housed to the support they received from staff and other tenants in permanent supportive housing units. There is an ongoing need to address current living conditions for tenants in permanent supportive housing. Over the course of a year, our Research Committee interviewed 46 people individually, 8 service providers, and another 36 people participated in focus groups. Our findings were compiled to create A New Bill of Rights for Tenants in Supportive Housing.
