Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Raphael House is a 15-20 unit apartment building that houses very low income families who are living with Aids and who are homeless. Forty-five to sixty people, half of whom are expected to be children will benefit from the housing and supportive services provided at Raphael House once it is operational.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

The impact on the present situation will be immediate and beneficial. The critical goal of this project is to increase long term affordable housing for the Miami Dade HIV/AIDS population providing access to health care and supportive services. This targeted population will no longer be homeless, and they will be receiving supportive services (case management, mental health counseling, substance abuse counseling, primary care and drug adherence).
