• Applicants must be willing to comply with the terms of the lease, whether independent, with the assistance of a third party   (paid by applicant), or as a result of a reasonable accommodation provided by the facility.
• Applicants must show proof of financial responsibility.

Maximum/Section 8 Units: Income for one person cannot exceed $37,150; income for a couple cannot exceed $42,450.

To Apply:

Interested applicants must visit Stevenson House in person to see the facility. This insures the housing and service meet the applicant's needs. Families are encouraged to join the applicant for this visit.

Please call Judy Durkin, Resident Service Assistant, at (650) 494-1944 ext. 20 to schedule a tour. The tour and informational interview will take about one hour. Following the tour, applicants are given a pre-application packet.

When Stevenson House receives a pre-application the applicant's name is placed on the Waiting List. When an applicant's name nears the top of the Waiting List, he/she is contacted and asked to complete a Final Application Packet.

Following successful completion of the Final Application Packet, the Resident Services Staff will meet with the applicant regarding a specific apartment availability, the lease, and move-in details. Waiting List Procedures:

• Applicants are placed on the Waiting List based on date and time of receipt of completed pre-application.

• Applicants are contacted at least once a year to verify continued interest.

• If we are unable to reach an applicant he/she is placed on the inactive list. If Stevenson House is contacted within three months of that unsuccessful attempt the applicant is reinstated to his/her former place on the list.

• Applicants who refuse an apartment three times are dropped to the bottom of the Waiting List.
