Between the Lines: A Question and Answer Guide on Legal Issues in Supportive Housing, California Edition

2010

This manual offers some basic information about the laws that pertain to supportive housing and sets out ways to identify and think though issues so as to make better use of professional counsel. It also offers reasonable approaches to resolve common dilemmas. Between the Lines offers information about the laws and regulations that govern supportive housing, and attempts to provide assistance in furthering the CSH goal of creating stable housing for homeless individuals and families. However, the Guide is not intended to solve specific legal situations that would require counsel, to provide legal advice, or to substitute for the assistance of an attorney. Readers should consult legal counsel and local government representatives for answers to and advice on specific legal concerns.
