Since this property is a Section 811 property and includes rental assistance, it will tend to have a longer waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
Catholic Charities, Diocese of Paterson recognizes the immense need for supportive housing. In February 2000, Straight & Narrow opened a 23-unit independent living apartment facility for low-income individuals with special medical needs. In May of 2003, Straight & Narrow celebrated the opening of a second facility, a new, 50-unit apartment complex for homeless men and women who have special medical needs.
The apartments include one-room efficiencies and two-room units designed to accommodate individuals with disabilities. Each apartment offers a private bathroom, two-burner stove, refrigerator and sink. Live-in staff and security are present 24 hours a day. The Straight & Narrow Apartments offer residents access to on-site counseling and support groups, financial counseling, medical support, recreational activities and linkages to other related services and support systems. Group social and recreational activities are held in the multi-purpose room of each apartment complex. Residents of the Straight & Narrow apartments may also choose to participate in Straight & Narrow’s Medical Day Care program.
As a Section 811 property, this apartment community only allows persons with disabilities. A person of any age with a disability, and an income at or below 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI), qualifies for residency. In addition, Straight and Narrow Apartments is highly desirable because it offers rent subsidies and will tend to have a longer waiting list. This program was first introduced in 1990, so these younger properties are generally in good condition. Since the property includes a rent subsidy, you would pay no more than 30% of your income toward rent. Most of these properties include a resident services coordinator that organizes and facilitates services like healthcare management, transportation, and social activities. If you are a low-income person with a disability and need some help maintaining independent living, this property might be right for you. Since this property participates in the HUD 811 program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
