Bring together community partners from a variety of sectors to connect frequent users to housing, healthcare, and care coordination is both the goal and lasting outcome of the Frequent Users Systems Engagement (FUSE) initiative in Washtenaw County, Michigan – a subgrantee of the CSH’s Social Innovation. Other health centers, housing and service providers can learn and replicate these coordination efforts. Avalon Housing, a permanent supportive Housing First provider, is the lead agency for this initiative. They work closely with the University of Michigan Health System, St. Joseph Mercy Health System, Packard Health (the local Health Center Program grantee), Community Mental Health, the Shelter Association, the Ann Arbor Housing Commission, and other service providers.
