The #BostonGlobe published Mainstay President Larry Oaks’ LTE today highlighting a supported housing program that’s making a difference for people with #autism. #supportivehousing #affordablehousing #autismsupport There is a way forward for supportive housing if state steps up with funding For those of us who work on the front lines of the housing crisis, the article “Families confront system in turmoil” came as no surprise. It exemplified another vulnerable population caught up in a crisis that seems to have no end. But this article struck this reader as different. The state of Massachusetts already has a supportive housing program that’s working for many families with adult children with autism, and the state has the ability to scale the model to better meet demand. It’s not a particularly complicated program either. Housing, made affordable thanks to federal or state rental subsidies, is being paired with daily supportive services and support through a little-known MassHealth program with a curious name — the Group Adult Foster Care program — to provide supported housing to 70 disabled adults in four towns outside of Boston. This basic approach has allowed the organization I lead to provide safe, stable, and service-enriched housing for hundreds of adults living with a range of disabilities, including autism, over the last decade. The only barrier to rolling it out across Massachusetts is the political will to fully and properly fund these existing housing and service programs. Do we have the will to tackle this issue? It remains to be seen. Do we have a model that would allow us to solve this problem in the next five to 10 years? We do.
