Northeast Medica Project
A new initiative in the Northeast region is offering supportive housing for Minnesotans experiencing disabilities, health challenges, and long-term homelessness. Aligned with our strategic goal to integrate health care systems with supportive housing, the new initiative is a collaboration among a health plan, social service providers, and Hearth Connection.
In partnership with Medica and the Human Development Center (HDC), this initiative will offer supportive housing designed to achieve housing stability, improved well-being, and decreased reliance on emergency and inpatient medical care. As always, service plans will be flexible and participant-driven, with a focus on addressing health needs and access to appropriate care.
The new initiative will serve five people in St. Louis County and the Duluth area over the next several years. During this period, Medica and Hearth Connection will track client-centered outcomes and offer progress reports. We hope to continue pursuing similar initiatives to increase supportive housing opportunities throughout the state.
