The housing bridge subsidy program provides supported housing to people who have serious mental illness. The purpose of supported housing is to reduce institutionalization by combining mental health outreach services with a subsidy to help pay rent. The rental subsidy terminates when the individual receives a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. Accordingly, in order for a person to be eligible for the housing bridge subsidy program, the person must apply for the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. The purpose of this rule is to describe the eligibility criteria, the application process, the services offered, the wait list and the appeal procedures for the housing bridge subsidy program.
