A growing number of states are leveraging new opportunities to cover services and supports that help people find, obtain, and maintain their housing. In 2024, the Housing and Services Resource Center (HSRC), in a collaborative effort between the U.S. departments of Health and Human Services and Housing and Urban Development, launched the Housing and Services Partnership Accelerator (HSPA) to accelerate innovative state strategies to provide housing-related services and supports (HRSS) to Medicaid-eligible people with disabilities and older adults who are at risk or experiencing homelessness. This initiative has helped eight states and the District of Columbia strengthen collaboration across Medicaid, housing, aging and disability (social care), and behavioral health systems, resources, and programs.

This webinar will highlight select 2024 HSPA states’ innovations and cross-sector collaborations built throughout the 12-month opportunity to serve as examples of successful models for other states seeking to build coordinated systems for delivery of HRSS. It will discuss how these collaborations can improve the coordination of housing assistance and wraparound services and supports as a cost-effective approach to assisting people with disabilities and older adults to transition from homelessness, exit or avoid institutional settings, and live stably in the community. Webinar participants will learn:

• Details of the HSPA opportunity and HSRC resources that will assist in the planning, development, and implementation of HRSS
• Best practices and lessons learned by the states that participated in the 2024 HSPA opportunity on creating sustainable cross-sector partnerships to improve service delivery
• What partners are essential to building a dynamic system to provide coordinated services and supports in housing, health, and social care services

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on joining the webinar. The event will include real-time CART captioning and ASL interpreting. If you need additional accommodations to participate or have questions, please email HSRC@acl.hhs.gov.
