SUPPORTED HOUSING SERVICES: THESE PROGRAMS PROVIDE PERMANENT HOUSING FOR ADULTS WITH SERIOUS PSYCHIATRIC ILLNESSES. MOST RESIDENTS OF THESE PROGRAMS LIVE ALONE IN SCATTERED SITE STUDIO OR ONE-BEDROOM BRONX APARTMENTS BUT OPPORTUNITIES FOR SHARED UNITS ARE AVAILABLE. THESE CONSUMERS HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE ABILITY TO LIVE INDEPENDENTLY IN THE COMMUNITY WITH LIMITED CASE MANAGEMENT SUPPORT SERVICES. SERVICES ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STABLE HOUSING AND SUPPORT TO ALL CONSUMERS. THE DEGREE OF SUPPORT SERVICES IS BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS OF EACH PERSON. AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY FOR PIBLY'S LEGACY SCATTERED SITE SUPPORTED HOUSING EXCEEDS 10 YEARS.

THE FOUR LICENSED HOUSING PROGRAMS INCLUDE A 110-BED APARTMENT TREATMENT PROGRAM (ATP), A 12-BED ON-SITE CONGREGATE TREATMENT PROGRAM (CTP), A 40-BED ON-SITE COMMUNITY RESIDENCE (CR) PROGRAM AND A 40-BED ON-SITE COMMUNITY RESIDENCE SINGLE ROOM OCCUPANCY (CR/SRO). THE ATP WAS EXPANDED FROM 99 TO 110 BEDS WHEN THE NYS OFFICE OF MENTAL HEALTH AWARDED 11 CONVERSION UNITS, WHICH ARE RESERVED FOR ADULT HOME (SUPPORTED HOUSING) CLASS MEMBERS WHO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL (LEVEL III) SUPPORT. ALL FOUR PROGRAMS ARE TRANSITIONAL AND MAINTAIN OCCUPANCY RATES OF BETWEEN 85 - 100%. AVERAGE LENGTHS OF STAY VARIED FROM 1 - 8 YEARS.
