Near my town there is a housing authority referred to as "Section 8 Housing."

There are also 6 big apartments for the elderly. All have cafeteria style dining halls. The residents pay a percentage of their income to live in the apartments one big room with a private bath) There are also several clusters of mini-apartments on the ground floor. No meals served in those units but “Meals on Wheels” delivers food to many of those residents.

I saw similar units in other towns when I serviced hearing aids.

Here is a web site for MT Montana Housing Authorities

I bet there is something similar in your area.


Several of my college internship cases had "section 8" housing. It should be available all over the US.

Corri I bet any “welfare type office” can point you in the right direction.
