Evaluation of the Lyon Building Supported Housing Program
Description:
An evaluation of The Lyon Building, a 64-unit permanent, supportive housing program for people living with HIV/AIDS who also have histories of homelessness, mental illness, and substance use located in Seattle, Washington. The report is based on data collected between November of 2001 and October of 2002 and includes analysis of information obtained through staff and client interviews, resident histories, monthly reports on client status and progress, and incident reports. Findings underscore the value and importance of access to stable "harm reduction" housing for individuals who have extensive histories of homelessness and who are struggling with recovery from addictive disorders and mental illness on an ongoing basis. Appendices include forms used for evaluation consent, staff and client interviews, monthly reports on client status and progress, incident reports, and historical data review. (Authors)
