If
you are interested in setting up an assisted living program in a HUD assisted
housing development, take a look at the following information: The
Assisted Living Conversion Program (ALCP), FY
2004 NOFA and application materials. This program provides private nonprofit
owners of eligible developments with a grant to convert some or all of the dwelling
units in the project into an Assisted Living Facility (ALF) for the frail elderly.
The facility must be licensed and regulated by the State (or if there is no State
law providing such licensing and regulation, by the municipality or other subdivision
in which the facility is located). The grant recipient must obtain third-party
funding to pay for the assisted living program's supportive services.
Read
the Assisted Living
Working Group's (ALW) Final Report. The ALW began when, "in follow up to the
Senate Special Committee on Aging hearing held in April 2001, committee staff
met with numerous assisted living stakeholders and asked them to develop recommendations
designed to ensure more consistent quality assisted living services. The primary
directive was to be inclusive and permit any interested national organization
to participate in the endeavor. Shortly thereafter… the Assisted Living Workgroup
began to take shape as nearly 50 organizations came together to discuss assisted
living and develop recommendations." Read
a recently released report entitled "Affordable
Assisted Living: Surveying the Possibilities", prepared for Volunteers of
America by the Joint Center for Housing Studies, Harvard University in January
2003.
