Media Coverage:
In 2002, National Public Radio engaged in a year-long special reporting
project called Housing First. In this series, NPR news explores the
housing dilemmas of Americans with special needs, and how lack of housing
can stymie their efforts to join mainstream society.
Learn more about the housing needs of those who need it most through
NPR reports as well as links to other sites for more information: http://www.npr.org/news/specials/housingfirst/index.html
