In a park-like setting overlooking the
Connecticut River in Holyoke, Massachusetts, the St.
Joseph Residence provides housing for low
income
seniors in need of enhanced services.
The facility, which opened in September, 2010, was
constructed by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Springfield
with a $4.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development and other funds.
 The
Residence includes 30
one-bedroom apartments for persons 62 years of age
and older, with varying needs for supportive services such as meals
and therapy.
A learning center, arts and crafts
room, therapy room and large courtyard for recreation
provides an enriching environment designed to help
residents live as independently as possible.
St. Joseph Residence at Mont Marie
is open to residents who:
-
can live independently with some
enhanced services
-
are at least 62 years of age
-
have a gross annual income that
meets HUD guidelines
Annual Income

Income limits for single residents
are $28,750 and for two persons sharing an apartment, $32,850. (These figures are

expected to change in 2012.)
