Act Now: Sustain Federal Funding for Supportive Housing in the FY26 Budget

Supportive housing works—and it needs your voice.

CSH invites local, state, and national organizations to join a unified call to Congress: fully fund supportive housing in the FY26 federal budget and protect the critical programs that make it possible. We urge Congress to maintain and strengthen targeted investments across the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Department of the Treasury, Department of Justice (DOJ), and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)—investments that are essential to building strong, healthy, and resilient communities.

Why It Matters

Federal funding is the cornerstone of supportive housing. It provides the stable platform upon which state, local, and private investments are built—enabling communities to deliver cost-effective, evidence-based solutions for people with disabilities and others experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Federal disinvestment in supportive housing would have serious and far-reaching consequences. The Administration’s FY26 budget proposal includes funding reductions, program consolidations, and new time limits on essential resources that would weaken the foundation of supportive housing. These changes threaten to disrupt supportive housing infrastructure, undermine long-term stability, increase reliance on already overstretched emergency systems, and slow progress in addressing the housing and service needs of people with disabilities, older adults, and others with complex health conditions.
