THE
SUPPORTED HOUSING INITIATIVE This study administered by the federal Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) proceeded in two phases. During Phase I, AHP conducted research in three of 10 study sites that were part of a national, multi-site study of supported housing for people with serious mental illnesses. Phase I included a process evaluation that focused on the development of a fidelity framework to help providers determine how well they adhere to recognized supported housing principles. During Phase II, AHP conducted research in two of six study sites. The study was intended to document major differences and similarities among housing models and to determine whether or not supported housing is more effective than a housing approach that is based on a linear residential continuum. AHP staff have made presentations on this study at conferences, national meetings, and state and local meetings of mental health residential providers.
