- Addressing Social Determinants of Healthmethodology: social-determinants-of-healthBy connecting individuals—particularly Medicaid members—to critical social services like housing, food, and transportation, HONOR improves health outcomes and stability because health is fundamentally shaped by non-medical, social factors.
- Client Choice and Dignity-Centered Empowermentmethodology: client_choice_modelBy using a market-style pantry model and centering client dignity, HONOR increases engagement and self-esteem because offering choice in essential services restores autonomy and promotes long-term well-being.
- Coordinated Care Modelmethodology: coordinated_careBy integrating services across health, mental health, substance abuse, legal, and homelessness support through collaboration with over 60 providers, HONOR addresses complex client needs holistically, improving outcomes because coordinated access reduces fragmentation and increases service utilization.
- Housing First Approachmethodology: housing_firstBy providing immediate access to permanent housing without preconditions, combined with supportive services, individuals experiencing homelessness—especially those with disabilities or chronic homelessness—are stabilized, which increases engagement with care and supports long-term independence because housing is treated as a foundational need.
- Individualized Support and Skills Developmentmethodology: personalized_support_and_skills_developmentThrough personalized service plans, counseling, and skills training tailored to client needs, HONOR fosters self-sufficiency and lasting independence because individualized support increases client engagement and builds capacity for long-term stability.
