SUPPORTIVE HOUSING

Permanent supportive housing (PSH) is an evidence-based housing model that combines affordable permanent housing with access to flexible supportive services. Supportive housing is designed for people with disabilities who are unlikely to be able to maintain stable housing without service-enriched housing. This combination of affordable housing and individualized support services helps individuals live healthier, more stable lives (from the Florida Housing Coalition).

Speer Village Phase I consists of 6 supportive housing units that serve 8 developmentally disabled adults. Qualification include proof of Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) registration. in addition, residents will have the support of either an on-site Supported Living Coach, or a case manager, depending on their level of need. Direct services will be provided to residents to help them maximize their capabilities, foster greater independence, and facilitate their involvement in the community. This type of supportive housing is made possible by the effective foundation of public, private and nonprofit sector involvement, including, the Speer Foundation, Pasco County and Florida Housing Coalition.

Phase II of The Commons at Speer Village (Speer Village) is a planned affordable housing project that will consist of 56 apartments. Construction is to begin in 2024 - 2025.
