Missouri Guide For Seniors Housing Contents Next Subsidized Housing: The Affordable Option For Low-Income Senior Adults Finding appropriate housing at affordable prices can be difficult for many senior citizens. The federal government has established several programs to assist seniors with these housing needs. Subsidized housing programs are administered through the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Missouri Rural Development (formerly Farmers Home Administration), and the Missouri Housing Development Commission. Each of the programs have separate eligibility guidelines based on income, family size, employment status, and other factors. Because of the variety of programs and eligibility factors involved, it is recommended that contact be made with management of the public housing in which you are interested for their specific requirements of residency. As a resident of subsidized housing you have certain rights and responsibilities that should be included in your lease, similar to those outlined under the landlord-tenant section. You also have a grievance procedure that may be used to resolve any disputes regarding rent increases, damage charges, eviction, or other unresolved problems. Where can I get more information?

June 1995 Community Solutions: Nonprofit Housing Developers' Successful Use of Federal Programs The situation in the inner cities of America is not hopeless. The creation of decent and affordable housing is an essential platform for residents of low-income communities who are trying to improve their lives. It is a first step toward transforming the deteriorated and violent conditions scarring our cities. Decent, affordable housing gives families dignity, self-respect, and the ability to improve their circumstances. Housing is not the solution to poverty in and of itself, but without a safe and healthy place to live, a family cannot begin to deal with its complex, interlocking problems. Why nonprofits? Over the past decade the nonprofit housing industry has significantly expanded both in production capacity and in sophistication. Nonprofit housing groups can now be found in all 50 states, in urban and rural areas from Portland, Oregon, to Portland, Maine. There are between 3,000 and 5,000 nonprofit organizations that have collectively developed hundreds of thousands of homes for low-income Americans. Community-based nonprofits are sensitive to the unique needs of their local neighborhoods. Their sustained commitment to the community makes them especially suited to undertake community development activities. Nonprofits work in areas largely neglected or abandoned by the for-profit sector for various reasons, such as the need to link social services to housing, the small scale of the housing development, or declining real estate values. Nonprofits have a different set of incentives and thus can do the work that no one else wants to take on.
