The Foundation's subsidized buildings were developed with the understanding that most seniors prefer to live on their own. And, there is no reason why most of them cannot - as long as they have sufficient finances and access to certain basic services, as required.

This is where the Foundation's subsidized buildings come in. They provide an apartment-based lifestyle for well, frail and handicapped seniors - complete with the specialized services that many require. Common areas such as lobbies, dining rooms and gardens have been created with the residents' comfort and well-being in mind, designed in cooperation with a prominent New York interior designer. 30 to 40% of the residents of seven of the Foundation's subsidized buildings benefit from the Enriched Housing Program. The staff provides case management services and organizes various social and recreational activities.
