Transgender Day of Visibility is honored every 31st of March! Project Navigate would like to highlight and acknowledge all of our transgender and non-binary community members today and every day. We encourage our community members to stand with the transgender and non-binary community

Today we want to talk about the impact of housing insecurity on mental health. For example, housing insecurity exposes individuals and families to increased stress and mental and physical health problems. High housing costs or a lack of affordable housing can force households to make difficult sacrifices to pay rent, such as forgoing medicines, medical appointments, and healthier food options. Individuals experiencing homelessness are more likely than others to become physically or mentally ill. Homelessness exposes individuals to multiple health risks, including communicable diseases, the elements, and malnutrition, and can exacerbate existing health conditions. Contrary to popular belief, mental illness does not cause homelessness; rather, homelessness worsens mental health and exacerbates symptoms of mental illness.

There are positive impacts of housing assistance on the health of families in need. The study demonstrated that housing vouchers increase housing stability, reduce exposure to domestic violence, and reduce food insecurity. The study showed that housing stability has a positive impact on the well-being of children, including a reduction in behavioral problems. In another study, the HUD-DOJ Pay for Success Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration, program participants showed increased housing stability, reduced recidivism, and fewer visits to hospitals than nomparticipants. HUD's long-term study, Moving to Opportunity, also reflects the positive effects of housing security through assisted housing on mental health.

Connecting with others can help us while we are going through difficult times. Project Navigate aims to provide a safe space and a sense of community to those in need!
