  3. Full Service Partnerships FSPs provide supported housing and team based services with a focus on rehabilitation and recovery FSPs are client centered and recovery oriented programs that do ‘whatever it takes’ to improve residential stability and mental health outcomes FSPs were implemented with substantial stakeholder input, and were adapted to local environments, resulting in a wide diversity in approaches to both housing and services
  4. Housing First Developed in New York City by Pathways to Housing Traditional housing model required treatment adherence and sobriety before placement Housing first model emphasized immediate housing in scatter site apartments with tenancy rights Adherence to the Housing First model can be measured using a fidelity scale Choice/affordability, scatter site housing, separation of housing and treatment, service philosophy, service array, team structure
  5. Why use a Fidelity Scale to Study FSPs? FSPs provide a natural experiment to study various approaches to housing and services Housing First model provides a gold standard Fidelity to Housing First provides a method of mapping FSP practices Opportunity to identify both best practices among FSPs and the important elements of Housing First
  6. Mixed Methods Study Quantitative data Administrative data (N=8,553, 60% schizophrenia) Provides information on housing, service utilization and costs Difference-in-difference analysis Propensity score matched control group Fidelity to Housing First obtained through a survey of 94 FSP practices Survey based on the HF Fidelity Scale Respondents were FSP teams + clients Allows us to link practices to outcomes Qualitative data Fidelity to Housing First obtained through 20 site visits
  7. Participating Counties
  8. Fidelity Survey Results
  9. Living Situations for FSP Clients in One Year Pre and Post Enrollment Percent of Days
