Episode notes
The Supportive Housing Institute is the flagship training series of the Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH). It is a comprehensive training for supportive housing development teams, which include a developer, a manager, and a supportive service provider. They learn about capital financing, operating financing, supportive services dollars, best practices, fair housing, and much more. At the end of the curriculum, which takes about six months to complete, teams present their projects to a panel of funders to get feedback that strengthens their applications for funding. In this episode, we speak with Leah Werner, the director of the Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee team at CSH, to gain a better understanding of the Supportive Housing Institute and the role it has played in permanent supportive housing in Kentucky.
