The Hidden Housing Crisis Report

The Hidden Housing Crisis Executive Summary

In 2007, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) submitted Affordable Housing Needs 2005 – the federal government's most recent “worst case” housing needs report – to Congress.  HUD's report vastly understated the number of non-elderly renter households with disabilities who have “worst case” housing needs.  This subsequent study conducted for the Technical Assistance Collaborative (TAC) and the Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities Housing Task Force (CCD) found that an estimated 2.1 -2.4 million of the 6 million households in the United States with “worst case” housing needs (35-40 percent of the total) are non-elderly disabled households.

Human Services
TAC has produced a number of publications that address assessments of behavioral needs, interventions, outcomes and measurements, and best practices.  

Opening Doors
Opening Doors is a joint effort by TAC and the Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities Housing Task Force.  This effort produces an on-going newsletter which is designed to provide important information  on affordable housing issues to people with disabilities, their families, advocates, service providers and the general public.
