A place to live, and help to keep it.

We help you obtain an appropriate housing placement. We aim to secure apartments, though sometimes it may be a shared room or a Single Room Occupancy (SRO).

Many people struggle to keep stable housing without support for unexpected challenges, so we stay with newly housed clients as they settle into a new home.

Subsidies we help with

  • Section 8
  • HASA
  • HUD VASH
  • City vouchers

How housing support works

  1. HRA 2010e application

    Each client gets individual help to submit the application, then help finding an agency that will accept it once approved.

  2. Housing assessment

    Every client completes a housing assessment with a member of our clinical team.

  3. After you move in

    Ongoing individual support, and help to secure low income housing once the subsidy is no longer available.

The Social Care Network, step by step.

We are part of a group of local, mostly non-profit organizations supporting health and well-being across the South Bronx. Together we connect Medicaid members to services for health-related social needs.

  1. Screen

    A team member assesses your current situation around housing, nutrition, transportation, employment, education and personal safety.

  2. Navigate

    We match each need to a resource and connect you to existing federal, state and local programs.

  3. Receive

    We coordinate one-time or up to six months of back rent and utilities, medically tailored meals, transportation and other services.

About the program

Social Care Networks are a New York State Medicaid program, created under the New York Health Equity Reform 1115 waiver approved in January 2024. Nine regional networks connect Medicaid members to free services for housing, food, transportation and more, delivered by local non-profits.

In the Bronx, the network is led by SOMOS Community Care. We work with SOMOS to screen our clients and connect them to services.
