Waukesha County residents who use opioids have access to stable housing
Why Is This Important?
People who use or are in recovery for substance use are at an increased likelihood to have difficulties managing finances, especially housing. To compound the issue, housing in Waukesha County is more expensive than both surrounding counties and comparable counties. Housing first initiatives have proven the importance of stable and affordable housing on substance use treatment.
