Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority


	Information by State Print version

The Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority (CMHA) has been a proud participant in the Congregate Housing Services Program since it was started as a three-year pilot program 30 years ago. It initially was operated at the Redding, but was moved to Maple Tower in 1996 when the Redding closed for renovations. Shortly after that time CMHA began to leverage the CHSP funds in order to provide additional services to its residents.

A contract was signed with the Southwest Ohio Council on Aging to administer the CHSP eight years ago. By utilizing the relationship with COA, CMHA was able to provide its residents with more programs than just the CHSP funds would allow. The Cincinnati Area Senior Services (CASS) is a sponsoring agency for the meal program at Maple Tower, using Title 3 funds as a match. The innovative step CMHA has taken to leverage the CHSP funds has benefitted the residents of Maple Tower and has helped the agency to keep occupancy levels high in that community.

Services offered to the 40 participants through CHSP funds and CMHA's partners include:

Meals program - lunch everyday and a self-supporting breakfast program during the week
Housekeeping
Medical Transportation
Personal Care
Lifeline Emergency Response Systems
