🎉 Did you know that today is World Creativity and Innovation Day? It's the perfect occasion to celebrate fresh, inventive solutions that foster equity and inclusion in ensuring access to safe, fair, and affordable housing. 🏠 In our upcoming report, "PHA Pathways to Advancing Equity," PAHRC delves into the initiatives of Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) striving to fulfill their commitment to promoting safe, fair, and affordable housing. Through 16 interviews and over 20 case studies, we've discovered a strong dedication among PHAs to enhancing equity within their properties. 🩺 One standout PHA leading the charge is Rutland Housing Authority. Their Support and Service at Home (SASH) program aims to improve health outcomes for all older adults in their community. SASH, initiated by Cathedral Square in Vermont in 2009, offers health and wellness assessments, care plans, coordination, and programs to enable seniors to age in place. Since its implementation, Rutland Housing Authority has witnessed remarkable impacts, including increased vaccination rates, decreased hypertension cases, and even lives saved. Today, let's all take inspiration from Rutland Housing Authority and brainstorm new, creative approaches to address opportunities for community improvement. 👉 Watch for our upcoming report, "PHA Pathways to Advancing Equity," to learn more about the diverse initiatives PHAs are undertaking to promote equity and advance fair, safe, and affordable housing. #WorldCreativityandInnovationDay #EquitableHousing #InnovativeApproaches #PHAInitiatives #WCIW #WCID #Equity #IAmCreative #Research #DataStories
