Check out this new report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The Support and Services at Home (SASH) program was launched in 2013 and has connected residents with community based health services. This program was set up to "decrease health care expenditures for elderly residents of affordable housing developments." Vermont SASH participants were studied in a recent evaluation of the program's first year of implementation.
