P.R. Laws tit. 17, § 1043
The Government known [sic] and addresses the reality that the elderly and persons with disabilities face in their daily living. At the time of searching for housing that is adequate for their conditions and responds to their needs, both the elderly and the persons with disabilities meet with the total nonexistence of adequate living quarters. At present, there are not enough housing projects directed to these groups, and consequently, the Commonwealth must comply with its duty to seek the welfare of these individuals.
To that effect, it is hereby proclaimed to be a compelling interest and the public policy of the Government of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico to promote the planned development of housing facilities directed to the elderly and to persons with disabilities. The implementation of this and other related measures shall propel the Puerto Rico of today into a brighter tomorrow for the elderly and the persons with disabilities.
