This study examined the impact of participating in social services programs designed for families who reside in supportive housing on their overall quality of life. A random sample of 300 households from a total of 1,400 families who reside in the Prince Salman Housing Program (PSHP) in Saudi Arabia were selected. PSHP provides a number of services such as job training, education, and micro-credit training. The following 6 independent variables were examined using 1 dependent variable, “quality of life”: challenge to family functioning, family communication, communication with organization, perception of social services, family resources, and housing equipments. Overall findings showed statistical significance between communication with organizations and perception of services as these variables influence the overall quality of life among participating families. Future research should continue to assess the overall impact of participation in social services programs on families who reside in supportive housing projects
