Indiana Supportive Housing Institute Finale & Awards

Indiana Supportive Housing Institute Finale & Awards

CSH and the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA) recognized outstanding achievement in supportive housing design, delivery and advancement across the Hoosier State at the finale of the Indiana Supportive Housing Institute. Four individuals were recognized for going above and beyond to ensure quality supportive housing is available to the most vulnerable in Indiana. Honorees receiving the Design & Delivery, Management Leadership and Development awards are all alumni of the Supportive Housing Institute.  Supportive housing champion Ray Lay has been a long time advocate using his voice to share his experiences in supportive housing to advance it across the state.

The finale celebration also represented the culmination of months of training for seven supportive housing development teams who will now be on their way to creating their supportive housing projects refined during the Institute process.

CSH and IHCDA was thrilled to have Indiana Lieutenant Governor Suzanne Crouch join us for the event where she noted, “As you know, IHCDA and CSH have graduated eight classes of teams that have together created over 1,400 units of supportive housing across the state of Indiana through the institute. Each of you have made the commitment to the institute process and have joined this prestigious group of community organizations, municipalities and housing providers. This year’s institute is particularly unique because there is a twofold focus. First, on serving persons experiencing homelessness with substance use disorders and secondly, youth experiencing homelessness.  These are both very serious, growing challenges, and I am pleased you are helping us address them here in Indiana.”
