About Lutheran Housing Services A ministry of Lutheran Homes Society, Lutheran Housing Services was created in 1981 in response to the independent housing needs of the elderly. Lutheran Housing Services manages nine communities that offer affordable housing to people who are 62 or older. Retirement apartment complexes are located throughout Northwestern Ohio and in Southeastern Michigan. Many of the units are federally subsidized.
All communities operate as facilities for independent living for eligible elderly.
Each community provides opportunities for recreational and religious programs, social events, outings and daily peer contact. Calm residential settings are an attractive feature, providing security, quiet, and respect for privacy - important aspects of living at a Lutheran Housing Services community. A part-time Social Services Coordinator is on site at the communities to assist residents in procuring meals, home health care, housekeeping, etc. Lutheran Housing Services received the 1999 Award of Excellence from Ohio Capital Corporation for Housing for excellence in their Social Services Coordinator program. Transportation Several of the communities offer such services.
