Criminal Justice

The New York State Health Home Program is working to address healthcare challenges and disparities faced by persons involved in the criminal justice system.


Housing

Housing insecurity is one of the leading social determinants of health risk factors. Housing has been shown to be an essential element of improved health and reduced utilization of costly healthcare services. Designated Lead Health Homes are expected to develop health home networks to provide members with access to housing. Health Home care managers will work with supportive housing providers to locate and provide housing as a means to facilitate access to health services and improve the health status of Health Home members.
