Green Senior Living in SJC - Yes!

Do you know any seniors looking for housing that are financially challenged at this time?

The City and Redevelopment Agency of San Juan Capistrano along with MacFarlane Costa Housing Partners is accepting applications for the Seasons Senior Affordable Housing Apartments Phase II. The Phase II project was a collaborative effort between the City, Redevelopment Agency and MacFarlane Costa Housing Partners to develop a 38-unit addition to the Season's affordable senior housing complex at the corner of Rancho Viejo Road and Paseo Espada. The $12M project came in under budget, ahead of schedule, and features green building construction techniques including solar power. Whoo Hoo! These apartments are available to seniors who meet the income qualifications. For more information on the apartment availability, contact Season's manager at 949-487-0210. Ican't seem to find a website for them.

There is an amazing nationwide movement of green nursing homes, if you go to youtube and search "green nursing homes" you will see a video of an amazing place where seniors go to live, not to die, and the caretakers are paid more than the administrators, and home cooking is in the air and folks eat family style. They have pets and gardens, it is sooooo cool!

While we are at it, here is a link to a page on the sjc website that lists all the programs for homeownership or rentals for financially challenged folk: http://www.sanjuancapistrano.org/Index.aspx?page=157

Each city has such a page, just go to the city's website and search "homeownership programs."
