Permanent Supportive Housing

  • There is a critical need for affordable and permanent supportive housing for all Floridians, especially those living with serious mental illness.
  • Florida ranks 4th in the lack of available supportive housing, behind Texas, California, and New York.
  • A safe home is a prerequisite for recovery.


Lack of Supportive Housing Contributes to:

  • Increased Hospital and Jail Costs
  • Homelessness
  • Overpopulation in Jails and Prisons
  • Overutilization of Emergency Rooms and Hospitals


Affordable Supportive Housing Leads to:

  • Recovery and Overcoming Symptoms of Mental Illness
  • Employment and Volunteering
  • Higher Quality of Life
  • Ability to Contribute to the Community 


See “How to Search for Housing for SMI in Florida” below.

FLMHAC supported the Florida Housing Finance Corporation’s 2023 Statewide Permanent Supportive Housing Workgroup as they developed a Plan for Supportive Housing. We would like to see the plan implemented.
