Housing Services
The Supported Housing Program provides stable, permanent, affordable housing for individuals with psychiatric disabilities. The Santa Cruz Community Counseling Center (SCCCC) and CFSC, its partner corporation, own and operate over 120 beds in duplexes, apartments, and 3 to 5-bedroom homes throughout the county. CSS provides support to all residents of SCCCC/CFSC housing in order to assist them in maintaining housing stability and in connecting to the community through its Supported Housing Team. This team consists of a Coordinator, Mental Health Counselor, and several part-time Peer Counselors.
In order to be eligible for housing, an individual must be low-income, have a serious psychiatric disability, and must also pass a criminal background check and have good landlord references. Applications are available at CFSC, at 195 Harvey West Blvd., Santa Cruz.
