- Abstract:
- People who receive long-term services and supports (LTSS) also need affordable and accessible housing, and many people in subsidized housing need LTSS they are not receiving. Common-sense programs designed to coordinate and streamline access to housing and LTSS for people who need both can help counter this challenge. Appropriate housing and services and supports are two of the four pillars of the AARP Public Policy Institute’s LTSS Choices framework of basic requirements of people who need services and supports. The additional pillars are: the workforce that provides the services and supports and community integration of individuals through connections to others in their community. The more closely coordinated these four requirements for supporting older adults and people with disabilities, the better the pillars can collectively meet the needs and preferences of each individual.
