People with AIDS are homeless for a variety of reasons, including financial devastation, rejection based on fear of contagion or fear of the dying process, and homelessness prior to a diagnosis of AIDS. The author developed and directed the Shanti AIDS Residence Program in San Francisco, the first program to provide housing for people with AIDS. This model is appropriate for single, independent people able to live cooperatively with others. It provides shared living situations for three to six people per apartment, and office staff physically maintain the houses and assure that the needs for community-based home care and other services are met. Other models are proposed for people who are physically or cognitively dependent (and require physical care or supervision in addition to housing), who are socially unable to live cooperatively with others in an unstructured living environment (e.g., active substance users or the emotionally disturbed), or who have families (e.g., mothers with dependent children or gay men who live with their lovers).
艾滋病患者无家可归的原因多种多样，包括经济崩溃、因恐惧传染或恐惧临终过程而被排斥，以及在被诊断出患有艾滋病之前就已无家可归。作者在旧金山开发并指导了“香提艾滋病居住项目”，这是首个为艾滋病患者提供住房的项目。该模式适用于能够与他人合作生活的单身、独立人士。它为每套公寓提供三到六人的共享居住环境，办公人员负责房屋的实际维护，并确保满足基于社区的家庭护理和其他服务需求。对于身体或认知有依赖（除住房外还需要身体护理或监督）、在非结构化生活环境中无法与他人合作生活（例如活跃的药物使用者或情绪障碍者）或有家庭（例如有受抚养子女的母亲或与爱人同住的男同性恋者）的人，还提出了其他模式。
