Pay For Success: Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration
In 2016, the U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) launched the Pay for Success Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration (the Demonstration). PFS is an innovative financing model that links payment for programs to the outcomes they achieved. The Year 3 Report that was just published provides a complete picture of the sites’ achievements and challenges through December 2019. In this updated infographic you can see the sites’ latest progress through March 2021.
