Description
Florida Housing Finance Corporation offers State Apartment Incentive Loan (SAIL) financing to Non-Profit Applicants building smaller permanent supportive housing developments for persons with special needs. The program is for housing development, not research. It aims to create affordable, permanent rental homes for people who may be homeless, living in residential facilities, or living in the community without housing that supports stability and access to appropriate services.
Developments must use Housing First principles and offer residents voluntary, no-cost coordination of community-based services. Applicants select the special-needs population or populations they intend to serve and commit a share of units to homeless households. Florida Housing gives funding-selection priority to developments in small and medium counties.
