Environmental Scan of Seniors Social Housing Models - January 2020
The purpose of this report is to provide an environmental scan of service delivery models that connect low- and moderate-income seniors living in social housing with health-related and supportive services. The findings are intended to inform the development of the ISM in TCHC’s seniors-designated buildings.
The scan identified 34 programs across Canada, United States (US) and Europe. Through desktop research, key details were collected about each program. Five examples were then selected for further analysis and key informant interviews.
The results of this research are intended to help TCHC, the City, TC LHIN and other partners better understand how integrated housing and supportive service models can promote housing stability, support better health, and mental and social wellbeing among seniors residing in social housing communities.
