Jazzie Collins Apartments is a 100% permanently supportive affordable housing project located at 53 Colton Street in San Francisco, CA. Comprised of 96 studio apartments, the all-electric, 6-story property is centrally located at the boundary between the South of Market, Mission, and Hayes Valley neighborhoods.

All tenants of Jazzie Collins Apartments will be formerly homeless single adults referred from the City's Coordinated Entry System, with 35 units set aside to rehouse permanent tenants with leases from the neighboring historic Civic Center Hotel. The remaining units will be occupied by formerly homeless residents based on referrals from San Francisco's Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing.

Each of the 96 efficiency studios includes a private bathroom, kitchenette, and furniture. The building design also includes an onsite resident services suite which can be accessed by all residents free of charge. These programs – spanning everything from case management, one-on-one counseling, community workshops, health assessments, treatment planning, crisis intervention, and more – are aimed at supporting residents and promoting self-sufficiency.

Both the San Francisco Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development and the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing have indicated that increased housing delivered by developers and service providers like HomeRise are critical to increasing the city's permanent supportive housing stock. HomeRise's housing first operating model combines permanent housing and supportive services alighted with these larger City goals. The 96 permanent supportive housing units at Jazzie Collins Apartments will contribute the necessary housing resources for those experiencing homelessness in San Francisco.
