Once complete, the development will provide 72 studio units of deeply affordable housing, designed to support individuals experiencing homelessness and housing instability. Residents will be referred through Hennepin County’s Coordinated Entry and Behavioral Health Systems. Touchstone Mental Health will provide comprehensive supportive services.
