Match-Up Home Sharing
In this arrangement, a homeowner or apartment renter with extra room shares his home with another person in exchange for rent and/or assistance; or, as a mutually supportive arrangement, the owner and other person will share social companionship, expenses, assistance, and household tasks. Sharing might be between two older people or between an older person and a younger person. Match-up Home Sharing can occur informally, but is often a formal program operated by a community agency that assumes responsibility for screening participants, matching for compatibility, assisting in drawing up agreements for living together comfortably, and helping with resolving conflicts that can occur when people share living quarters. Match-up Home Sharing does not require licensure by the New York State Department of Health.
