PROGRAMS
Family Transitional Housing
We have 54 beds in 3 shelters that provide a safe place to stay for families. Residents can stay 4 to 6 months, in a home-like environment, while they establish themselves in a career and build up savings in order to transition into permanent housing. We house over 150 men, women and children each year in a spirit of dignity and love through our three residences.
The ultimate goal is to help keep families at risk of homelessness remain in safe and stable housing environments as well as have the skills they need to maintain self-sufficiency in the future.
Transitional Aged Youth Shelter (TAY)
Combining Housing Education and Skills for Students. A transitional 12-24 month program for 18-24-year-olds. Residents attend college, trade school, or complete a high school diploma/GED requirements. Many of our residents were in the foster care system and do not have help navigating the education system. Our case managers help them set personal goals and connect them to appropriate resources.
Transitional Aged Youth will have housing, gain part-time employment and complete coursework that will increase their income, provide stability and end the cycle of homelessness.
HomeShare Transitional Housing Program
Our HomeShare Transitional Housing Program for Single Women provides shared transitional housing for women in a supportive living environment where participants work toward stability and permanent housing.
