Housing and Services

Oregon has a critical shortage of affordable, accessible housing for low-income older adults living in small or rural communities. This isn’t an issue of the future, but a crisis of today. Many older adults want to remain in the communities they live in as they age, but they face challenges of high rents, homes that aren’t suitable for those with disabilities, and poor access to supportive services. As such, AGE+ is partnering with local organizations to bring an efficient, affordable housing model for older adults to communities throughout Oregon. AGE+ and our housing development partner, Community Housing Solutions, have created a model to quickly build accessible housing for older adults that ease financial burdens and implement our proven program, Circles of Care, to deliver support services.
