HOPWA Supportive Services often provide the glue that holds together all of the types of HOPWA housing assistance
that might be provided by a grantee and its project sponsors. HOPWA allows for significant flexibility in terms of the type
of services that can be provided. This gives grantees a diverse set of resources in their toolbox for creating systematic
and coordinated responses to the housing needs of persons living with HIV/AIDS in their area. This flexibility
allows the housing needs of HOPWA participants to be responded to in a comprehensive and holistic manner,
by improving the housing stability of participants, so that other care and support, especially medical care, can be accessed.
