HOUSING SERVICE

        There are a number of federal and state housing programs to assist individuals, senior groups, non-profit housing organizations and other interested persons to obtain or develop housing. There are programs to help rehabilitate a home, to find new housing, to finance the construction of housing for low and moderate income families and individuals, or to lower the rent through a rent subsidy. There are a wide variety of housing options to meet the special needs and interests of older adults and a thorough knowledge of these options is essential in providing housing services.
