Frequently Asked Questions
- Why does the Bronx have so many HASA supportive housing buildings?
- Historical funding patterns and the concentration of HIV/AIDS service organizations in the Bronx led to many supportive housing buildings being sited in the borough during the late 1980s and 1990s expansion of NYC's HIV housing infrastructure. The pattern has continued as buildings have been renovated and replaced.
- What is BronxWorks and how does it relate to HASA?
- BronxWorks is one of the largest social service organizations in the Bronx, with multiple HIV/AIDS supportive housing buildings. BronxWorks can refer eligible clients to HASA and operates dedicated case management programs for HIV-positive residents.
- Can HASA cover both rent and supportive services in the Bronx?
- Yes. HASA pays for the housing (whether scattered-site or supportive); HASA-funded supportive housing buildings combine rent payments with on-site services like case management, medical care coordination, and mental health support — services HASA also funds.
