As of mid-December, 33 people in Missoula who were formerly homeless now have apartments of their own at Blue Heron Place, one of the largest permanent supportive housing initiatives in the city.
The 30-unit building on Mullan Road marks a transformative point in Missoula’s path to address its affordable housing crisis, a situation that peaked in the summer of 2023 when then-mayor Jordan Hess declared an official “state of emergency regarding homelessness and sheltering.”
