How to join the waiting list

Demand for low-income senior affordable housing far exceeds availability in most areas. We maintain a Waiting List to provide a fair and equitable way to track interest and make apartments available as they become vacant. Applications shall be distributed only when the Waiting List is open and can be acquired, completed and submitted via e-mail, mail, walk-in, fax and/or online. Refer to the top of this page to see if we’re currently accepting applications.

Once the application is received, it will be determined whether the applicant preliminarily qualifies to be placed on the waiting list. If the applicant does not qualify, they will be notified in writing. The community must be notified by the applicant's preferred method of communication if any application information changes, including but not limited to contact and income information. The community updates its waiting list once per year. If the applicant does not respond to the community's outreach regarding staying on the waiting list, the applicant will be removed from the list.
