The Supportive Housing Program provides funding for qualified developers to create and/or preserve permanent supportive rental housing for Extremely Low Income (30% or less of Area Median Income [AMI]) households. Permanent supportive housing includes housing for those in need of on-site services, including those currently experiencing homelessness. The SHP maximum award per project is $2,000,000. MaineHousing is also making available Section 8 Project Based Vouchers (PBVs) from its Housing Choice Voucher Program to be used in conjunction with SHP funds.
