#AugustaME to get 25 units of supportive housing for chronically #homeless people
The City Council approved a financing agreement with the developer of the #Riverlands #AffordableHousing development, making possible the construction of 25 units of long-term housing for people experiencing chronic #homelessness
Ethan Horton, April 7, 2026
Excerpt: "Augusta City Council members have agreed to help finance a 25-unit supportive housing development for people experiencing chronic homelessness, a final step for a first-of-its-kind project in Maine’s capital.
Operated by #VolunteersOfAmerica Northern New England, the Riverlands affordable housing project plans to build a 24/7, year-round supportive services and affordable housing building on Oxford Street, in the Sand Hill neighborhood of Augusta.[...]
"Only people designated as chronically homeless would be eligible to live in the three-story Riverlands development. A person who is chronically homeless, as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, has lived without consistent shelter for at least a year or has been homeless four times in the past three years; and has a diagnosable substance use disorder, mental illness or disability."
