On Thursday, November 6, 2025, Matthew Frumin, Chairperson of the Committee on Human Services, and Christina Henderson, Chairperson of the Committee on Health, will convene a Joint Public Oversight Roundtable on Behavioral Health Supports in Local Housing Voucher Programs. The roundtable will be held in a hybrid format, in both Room 412 of the John A. Wilson Building and on the Zoom virtual platform, beginning at 11:00 a.m. The purpose of this oversight roundtable is to examine the effectiveness of the District’s Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) programs in supporting individuals who benefit from these services, including those with serious mental illness or substance use disorders. The roundtable will also explore how the Department of Human Services (DHS), the Department of Behavioral Health (DBH), and other stakeholders can strengthen collaboration to better meet the behavioral health needs of residents receiving District-funded housing vouchers.
