摘要
There are numerous federal housing assistance programs, but together they fall far short of meeting the affordable housing needs of older adults with low incomes. This article describes major federal housing assistance programs and the current need for housing assistance for older adults. The article also points to three solutions: an entitlement for housing assistance for older adults with low incomes, significant expansion of affordable homes, and financing of services for older adults within affordable housing communities.
