More than 20 years ago, Lifehouse pioneered the development of affordable housing for developmentally disabled adults in Marin with a 12-unit apartment complex. We remain committed to identifying new affordable housing opportunities for the developmentally disabled in Marin and Sonoma counties. We continue to look at opportunities for new housing development and are currently in the process of applying to develop a new HUD funded complex. In 2001, we applied for and received a grant from the Department of Developmental Services to work on housing issues. This effort resulted in several workshops on affordable housing and the formation of a committee of families that are interested in developing new approaches to housing. It also resulted in the formation of a three-county corporation, West Bay Housing, formed in August of 2004 to develop a concerted broad-based effort to develop housing for the developmentally disabled within Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties. Lifehouse continues to advocate for more affordable housing, as high costs are a key barrier to program expansion. Staff members are active in local housing organizations that advocate for affordable housing, including the Marin Housing Council, the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce workforce housing consortium, the Ecumenical Association for Housing, and the Marin Continuum of Services. |
