Description: Most older people reside in the community until advanced ages (85+). Supportive housing enables independence in daily living, promotes healthy aging and quality of life, and supports older people's goals for aging in place. Housing that is supportive for older people is affordable, designed or able to be modified to accommodate changing needs as people age, is energy efficient, promotes social participation, and facilitates the delivery of home-based community care and allied services.
