Homelessness

Progress toward preventing and ending homelessness is achieved through the strategic use of resources and Housing First strategies. TAC’s consultants include experts on addressing chronic, youth, family, and Veteran homelessness.

Affordable Housing

In response to the enormous and growing demand for rental housing that meets the needs of extremely low-income people — including those with disabilities — TAC helps states and communities develop policies and financing approaches that can increase the supply.

Mental Health & Substance Use

TAC helps organizations and agencies at every level to align systems, leverage resources, and deliver the effective care and services that people with serious mental illness and substance use disorders need to thrive.

Community Integration

The 1999 Olmstead decision affirmed the right of people with disabilities to live in integrated settings. TAC helps states comply with federal standards by increasing their supportive housing supply, identify funding sources, and improving access to community-based services.

Medicaid

TAC is fluent in federal Medicaid rules and regulations, and skilled at leveraging Medicaid to promote access to services that help people with disabilities, youth in foster care, and people experiencing homelessness to live at home and in the community.

Database of Vouchers for People with Disabilities

TAC maintains a comprehensive database of Housing Choice Vouchers targeted to people with disabilities and other special needs. This database is updated each time the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announces new funding awards. Note: On May 13, 2020, HUD announced that public housing agencies awarded Mainstream funds in 2018 and 2019 would receive a 30% increase in funding. Unit estimates will be added to the TAC Vouchers Database when available.

Permanent Supportive Housing​

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) is a proven and cost-effective approach that integrates affordable rental housing with community-based supportive services. This model has been shown to help people with long-term disabilities — including mental illnesses, substance use disorders, and chronic health conditions — to access and maintain stable housing in the community.
