•44% of Boston’s households lack sufficient income to sustain the household without subsidies (source: BPDA)
•Housing First can save an average of $31,500 on emergency services per person (Source NAEH)
•If subsidized units are made available to an additional 5% of the eligible population, the odds of overcrowding decrease by 26% and the odds of families making multiple moves decrease by 31%.” Overcrowding and multiple moves are both known predictors of poor child and family health outcomes.
