CSH is excited to announce its 2024 Kansas City Metro Supportive Housing Institute (“The Institute”). The 2024 Institute will address the lack of deeply affordable housing and services in Kansas City Metro area (Jackson, Clay, Platte, Cass and Lafayette Counties in MO, and Wyandotte, Johnson and Allen Counties in KS), experienced by youth, adults and families that are homeless or at risk, or are involved in the child welfare system, aging out of foster care, or exiting other institutions (jails, prisons, group homes). The Institute will help supportive housing partners learn how to navigate the complex process of developing housing with supportive services to prevent and end homelessness. The Institute process is expected to reduce the time it takes to obtain funding for supportive housing by improving the planning and development process. In addition to supportive housing projects, consideration will be given to integrated supportive housing developments that include up to 25% of their units as supportive housing.
