Creating Housing Networks that Support those in need
API values the role board and care, independent living, and sober living housing plays in providing safe, clean and affordable homes for our clients and others in the Behavioral Health Community. We see supportive housing as a vital component in many of our client’s road to recovery.
Our Housing Matters initiative works to support, educate and partner with owners and operators of Supportive Housing to create broader access to great housing options for those living with behavioral health issues. The programs below make up our Housing Matters Initiative:
- Preferred Housing Partnership
- API Housing Advisory Committee
- Bi-Annual Housing Matters Summit
Partnering with the Housing Community to Improve Lives
Our Preferred Housing Partnership is a community program which invites supportive housing owners and operators to partner with Alvarado Parkway Institute as a preferred housing option for our clients who are seeking the best supportive housing option for their unique needs. Preferred Housing Partners receive benefits such as first notice of continuing education training and credits, invitations to attend our bi-annual Housing Matters Summit, the opportunity to be a part of our Housing Advisory Committee, professional development speaker series, round table discussions, and a beneficial partnership with a trusted, fast growing Behavioral Health System.
Along with the many benefits of being a partner, our list of Preferred Housing Partners will be used by our Social Services teams and Outpatient Programs as they seek the best options for assisting patients in finding the best housing.
Supportive Housing owners or operators interested in participating in our Preferred Housing Partnership program must meet our quality standards and successfully complete our program’s application process.

API Housing Advisory Committee Leading the way Home
API has partnered with leading supportive housing business owners and key community stakeholders to form our Housing Advisory Committee. This group of 20 community leaders meet monthly to discuss issues that impact housing for those with mental illness or addiction and to identify needs and strategies to improve housing for this vulnerable population. This advisory committee identifies topics, educational resources and speakers for the Bi-Annual Housing Summit.
API’s Housing Matters Summit
Our Bi-Annual Housing Summit brings together supportive housing owners, operators, government entities, Behavioral Healthcare providers and key community stakeholders to receive information, education and to explore the issues affecting the supportive housing and behavioral healthcare communities. Attendance is free but registration is required.
