The Joyce is a historic building located at the corner of SW 11th Avenue and SW Harvey Milk Street, commemorating the center of LGBTQ+ culture in Portland. The newly renovated building has 66 efficiently designed single-room occupancy apartments. It also features a community room with a kitchen for on-site activities. Individual rooms have efficient kitchens and air conditioning; each floor has three shared bathrooms.

CPAH worked with Carleton Hart Architecture on a trauma-informed design that includes elements of biophilia. Biophilia strives to provide a sense of healing and calmness in residents to help them overcome a fight-or-flight response. The building features natural materials, calming earth-toned paint colors, natural light, and outdoor connections.

Serving formerly houseless individuals, the ground floor of The Joyce is where residents can connect with on-site supportive services, including care coordination, crisis intervention, housing stabilization support, and wellness activities. Service providers have offices for on-site mental health and addiction support for residents and include Cascadia Health, a community-based behavioral health and substance use treatment services agency, Native American Rehabilitation Association NW, a Native American-owned and operated mental health and addiction services agency, and Cascade AIDS Project, a local agency for those living with HIV/AIDS. All 66 units have Project-Based Section 8 vouchers.
