2022 Indiana Supportive Housing Teams Announced

Indianapolis (Jan. 25, 2022) – Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch, the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA) and CSH have announced the eight teams that will be participating in the 2022 Indiana Supportive Housing Institute. These teams will each establish a plan to develop affordable housing with access to supportive services for individuals experiencing homelessness.

“The Institute continues to be an intentional opportunity for organizations to develop detailed, individualized supportive housing plans,” Crouch said. “This year we are focusing on providing supportive housing that will serve individuals experiencing homelessness as identified through the state’s Coordinated Entry system.”

Coordinated Entry helps communities prioritize assistance based on vulnerability and severity of service needs, to ensure that people who need assistance can receive it in a timely manner. The core elements of a coordinated entry are access, assessment, prioritization and referral.

“The Institute is an opportunity for IHCDA to promote housing stability for those experiencing homelessness,” said Jacob Sipe, Executive Director of IHCDA. “It’s important that IHCDA and our partners align affordable housing developments to the current needs in communities across the state.”

“CSH congratulates the teams selected for the Institute. We look forward to collaborating with them and IHCDA to advance supportive housing in the state,” said Lori Steele, Director of CSH Indiana. “Also, we applaud IHCDA for its leadership and for prioritizing HOME-ARP funds towards quality, supportive housing development that will help so many people and families to find a home and stability to thrive in their communities.”
