This policy brief summarizes research from the Family Permanent Supportive Housing Project, which includes data on 409 families in 13 supportive housing programs, and though not a nationally representative sample, documents the characteristics and needs of homeless families living in supportive housing programs. At four of the thirteen programs studied (with 139 families) researchers were able to conduct follow-up interviews with families one year after their initial enrollment. These data can provide preliminary evidence concerning program outcomes. The full report, Family Permanent Supportive housing: Preliminary Research on Family Characteristics, Program Models, and Outcomes, is available at www.csh.org.
