Turner Plaza (Innovative Housing Program) is operated under the Volunteers of
America Foundation with the Baton Rouge Housing Authority to use available
permanent housing for homeless individuals that are disabled. Funded by the
Supportive Housing Program, the project serves to coordinate the placement of
its clients into 30 permanent housing units. Other supportive services provided
under SHP includes the development of individualized service plan, assistance
with managing permanent housing, supportive counseling, transportation and
travel training, and setting consumer and vocational goals. Grant funds awarded
under the 1999 SHP have been expended. The project received a three year renewal
funding under the 2002 SHP for the continued delivery of services.
