Housing With Services – Independent (HWS-I)
We provide Housing Support Services that promote safe, stable housing and long-term independence.
Housing With Services – Independent (HWS-I)
Housing With Services – Independent (HWS-I) supports individuals who are able to live independently but need financial housing assistance to maintain stable housing in the community.
Participants live in scattered-site apartments, hold a standard lease, prepare their own meals, and live like typical tenants. Housing Support funding may follow the participant if they move to another approved unit.
Referrals for HWS-I, people can often self‑refer by contacting Frontier, or they can be referred by a case manager or county worker to Frontier Living. The staff then submits eligibility documentation and coordinates with the county in order to secure the Housing Support benefit.
