From the JB Pritzker Administration:

Pritzker Administration Awards $50 Million in Permanent Supportive Housing Development Grants

Seven new supportive housing developments will provide safe, permanent homes for people living with disabilities or at risk of homelessness

CHICAGO – The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) announced the conditional award of more than $50 million in state and federal funding to spur the development of permanent supportive housing throughout Illinois.

These critical investments will enable the construction or rehabilitation of seven developments, creating 129 units of affordable housing integrated with comprehensive services to help vulnerable individuals and families attain stable housing.

Awardees were selected after a competitive application and review process and approved by IHDA’s Board.

“Today, my administration is reaffirming its commitment to housing equity by awarding $50 million to seven permanent supportive housing developments across the state,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “Our critical investment will not only help Illinois’ most vulnerable residents achieve long-term housing stability, but it will also inspire hope by allowing people, regardless of illness or limitation, the freedom and dignity to live independently in settings appropriate to their own personal needs and preferences.”

Awarded under Round XI of IHDA’s Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Development Program, these developments are designed to serve Illinoisans that include those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, living with disabilities, and exiting institutional care.

Residents will have access to on-site, wraparound services tailored to their needs including supportive services, healthcare referrals, employment assistance, and case management to empower them to live with dignity and independence.
