In support of its ongoing national commitment to improve housing stability for vulnerable members and communities, Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) today announced an additional $40 million investment to increase the supply of affordable housing. This latest round of funding raises Humana’s total financial commitment for affordable housing to $90 million and increases the scope of the program to include additional properties nationwide, including in the states of Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin. At the same time, Humana continues to work with communities around the country to better understand the vital wrap-around services that help to stabilize and address health-related social needs.

“At Humana, we recognize that housing quality and related support services have a direct impact on health, which is why we are committed to increasing the supply of affordable housing and support services for vulnerable populations in the communities we serve,” said John Barger, President of Humana’s Medicaid business, Humana Healthy Horizons. “Through creative partnerships in affordable housing, we can help people gain access to safe and quality places to live and provide the stability they need to focus on achieving their best health. We are pleased to increase our investment in affordable housing to help revitalize properties in numerous communities across the country.”

Humana knows that housing stability is a key social determinant of health and is one of the issues the company is addressing through its social health initiatives. To help improve the health of its members and communities, Humana’s national housing strategy is focused on three key areas:

• Housing Stability and Homelessness Prevention
• Stabilizing Individuals with Significant Health Risks with Incremental Clinical Support
• Strategic Investments to Increase Community Capacity

The company has initiatives underway to support all three areas, including its affordable housing commitment which now totals $90 million. This investment will help address the short supply of low-cost rental units and create affordable housing capacity in many of the communities that Humana serves.

“We truly value the partnership we’ve had with Humana over the years to help meet the growing demand for quality, affordable housing across the country,” said Steve Kropf, President and CEO of Raymond James Affordable Housing Investments. “We believe a stable, safe, and affordable home environment is essential to a high quality of life and leads to healthier communities. It’s through key partnerships like the one we have with Humana that we are able to significantly impact the health of residents across the country – together.”
