Housing models for youth who experience homelessness should balance stability, safety, and affordability with continuous preparation for future independent housing. A number of different housing models in the youth housing continuum, including supportive housing, community-based group homes, and supervised or scattered site apartments, among others are discussed. Although scarce, dedicated resources for affordable housing that target homeless youth are identified.

This audio conference covered the HUD-VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) program.
