    Will any of these projects consist of housing for a 44 year old man with Cerebral Palsy, developmental delays, and a seizure disorder? Where is the housing? He presently lives in a studio apt in Elizabeth and needs decent housing. His rent is $625 and he is trying to live on $786 in SS disability. Thank you.
