The 20 apartments reserved for individuals experiencing homelessness include supportive services such as home aides, personal-care attendants, skilled nursing, transportation to necessary locations, and more, through Crouse Community Center and rental subsidies funded through the Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative and administered by the New York State Department of Health.
