Springhill Pooled Trust is proud to be partnering with @ Community Housing Network, Inc.!

CHN was awarded a generous grant from Springhill Housing Corporation for our Critical Needs Fund.

This grant will go a long way in supporting people with disabilities. These funds enable CHN to provide basic needs and goods and services including furniture, household items, and cover moving costs for households in need. This helps people with disabilities facing a housing crisis move into housing and make their new housing feel like home. Together, we are making a positive impact in the lives of many. 🏠

🎁 Giving Thoughtfully This Holiday Season 🎁

When a loved one with a disability receives needs-based benefits like SSI or Medicaid, some gifts — especially cash — can unintentionally put those benefits at risk.

Why it matters:
Cash, large checks, or high-value assets may count as income or resources and affect eligibility. Rules vary by state, so it’s important to give carefully.

Safer ways to give:
✔️ Contribute to a Third-Party Special Needs Trust
✔️ Use an ABLE account (one per person; annual contribution limits apply)
✔️ Pay directly for experiences or services like tickets, lessons, or memberships

Great gift ideas that are usually safe:
🎨 Books, games, art supplies
📱 Electronics or adaptive technology
🧸 Sensory-friendly or comfort items
♿ Accessibility-focused tools that support independence

Community Housing Network (CHN) is proud to administer the IDD Housing Access Pilot Program (IHAPP) — a statewide initiative funded by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) through Housing Community Development Funds (HCDF).

IHAPP’s mission is to expand access to affordable, inclusive, and community-integrated housing by supporting new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition of units — both in mixed-income rental developments and through homeownership pathways.
Across Michigan, thousands of individuals with IDD face housing barriers due to limited income, a shortage of accessible homes, and reliance on aging caregivers. IHAPP is investing in accessibility, integration, and meaningful choice to create real housing solutions.

💙 Everyone deserves the opportunity to live safely, independently, and fully included in their community.

Whether you’re a family member, attorney, advocate, or service provider, we believe in working together to build brighter, more secure futures — because no one should have to navigate this journey alone.

For individuals receiving SSI, Medicaid, or other means-tested public benefits, receiving a settlement or inheritance without a plan in place can lead to dev...
