    • Supportive housing is a key strategy for enabling older adults to age in place within their communities.
    • Integrating social and health services with housing is crucial for comprehensive elder care.
    • The role of specific support personnel in bridging service gaps requires investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the function of a tenant resource coordinator (TRC) within supportive housing for the elderly.
    • To understand how TRCs link social and health services with housing arrangements.
    • To evaluate the TRC's role as a facilitator between service systems and residents.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of the tenant resource coordinator role in an elderly housing setting.
    • Examination of information flow between tenants, services, and housing.
    • Case study approach to understanding the TRC's function.

    Main Results:

    • The tenant resource coordinator (TRC) effectively conveys information to tenants about available services.
    • TRCs also facilitate the flow of tenant needs and feedback to service providers.
    • The TRC acts as a crucial intermediary, bridging the housing and community service sectors.

    Conclusions:

    • Tenant resource coordinators (TRCs) are vital in supportive housing for older adults.
    • TRCs enhance service accessibility and integration for elderly residents.
    • This role optimizes the supportive housing model by improving system linkage and resident support.
