North Carolina

North Carolina seeks to build on current initiatives to improve housing supports and services by strengthening the collaboration between Medicaid and housing resources within the state, including the Healthy Opportunities Pilot (which has provided more than 13,000 services to 33 rural counties representing one third of the state) and Olmstead Transition to Community Living. The state will explore ways to align eligibility criteria across programs, maximize resources, and design a centralized, streamlined point of access for individuals to ensure that all people with disabilities and older adults who are at risk for homelessness, or experiencing homelessness, have access to eligible housing and support services.

Led by the North Carolina Medicaid agency, the state team includes representation across the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services and the North Carolina Interagency Council for Coordinating Homeless Programs
