结论 |
- Clients' use of public services, especially medical and mental health services, dropped substantially, including emergency room visits and inpatient care. Costs, correspondingly, also decreased.
- Across all the services examined, the associated costs for public services consumed in the year after receipt of supportive housing declined by close to 60 percent.
- Participants' self-reported mental health functioning improved after receiving housing, though self-reported physical health was largely unchanged.
- Although the number of individuals arrested and the number of jailed arrests decreased during the year after receiving housing, the number of jail days increased following PSH entry by an average of 2.76 days.

摘要 |
- The program should continue, with close monitoring of the longer-term costs and benefits.
- Further studies should examine whether the HFH PSH model is effective for populations other than those currently targeted by the program.
- We recommend a more rigorous study, such as the use of a comparison group, to more confidently conclude that the decreases in service utilization and costs are due to the HFH PSH program.
- Increased incarceration costs due to the increased length of jail stays over time should be examined to determine how this might potentially inform recruitment and retention strategies and influence longer-term program effects.
- We recommend gathering data from a broader range of service providers to examine the broader societal impact of the HFH PSH program model.
