Abstract
Interest in board and care arrangements designed to provide food, shelter, and protective and personal care for chronically impaired adults has increased in recent years. Most of the authority for licensing and regulating such supportive housing arrangements resides with the states. The results of a regression analysis of state board and care supply for 1983 suggest that Supplemental Security Income Program (SSI) policy, specific board and care regulations, Medicaid nursing home rates, and the percentage of elderly are particularly important in explaining about two-thirds of the variance in state bed supply.
