Earlier this week, the Department joined community leaders and property residents to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the opening of Hideaway Bay, a permanent supportive housing community located in South Dade for seniors who have experienced homelessness. The City of Miami contributed HOME-ARP funds towards the rental building, which is operated by Miami-Dade County's Homeless Trust and New Hope Corps.

The hotel to housing conversion features some 100 studio apartments. Residents benefit from on-site comprehensive case management, laundry facilities, cable TV, and Wi-Fi access — all designed to support long-term housing stability. Rent is calculated at 30% of the resident’s income.
