Overview
In 2021, the Massachusetts State Legislature appropriated $150 million in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for a reserve to support the production of permanent supportive housing. Of that $150 million, $15 million is being administered by the Massachusetts Alliance for Supportive Housing (MASH) to advance the creation of permanent supportive housing for unaccompanied adults experiencing homelessness who have disabling conditions.
MASH is a collaboration between Massachusetts Housing and Shelter Alliance (MHSA), United Way of Massachusetts Bay & Merrimack Valley (United Way), and Corporation of Supportive Housing (CSH).
