HUD's
Demonstration Program for Elderly Housing for Intergenerational
Families relies on other sources of funding for supportive services.
There are numerous sources of federal, state, and local funds available
to pay for services, including Medicaid, Older Americans Act funds,
and state-only programs. It is important for applicants to understand
that not all residents of HUD-assisted housing will be eligible
for all sources of services funding. Some potential sources of funding
or information about funding include:
- State
and Area Agencies on Aging
- Medicaid
Home and Community Services Your state may offer home and community-based
services through its Medicaid program, either through the regular
Medicaid state plan and/or through the Medicaid 1915(c) waiver
program (i.e., a home and community-based services waiver). Some
states pay for assisted living services for low-income seniors
this way. Here are links to useful sites that explain Medicaid
home and community services and to contacts in your state.

Some low-income residents that could be served by applicants may
have Supplemental
Security Income as their primary source of income.
