Collaborative Solutions, Inc.

The overall purpose and goal of our work is to impact the system of supportive housing throughout the United States to ensure that vulnerable populations are adequately housed and can access supportive services. Research continues to show that stable housing leads to improved health outcomes for vulnerable populations; in fact, stable housing leads to fewer hospitalizations and emergency room visits, which in turn decreases the burden on private and government-based support systems. Through the delivery of training, technical assistance, research, and targeted community initiatives; Collaborative Solutions is able to strategically build the capacity of local communities and various types of organizations, while also helping them maximize their long-term community impact in the areas of housing, health and services.
