Transitional Housing

Time-limited housing and support services for individuals and/or families

Description

Provides housing and supportive services to individuals and families who are homeless or in need of safe housing.

Transitional housing helps people live independently, address issues that led to homelessness or kept them homeless, rebuild their support network and transition into permanent housing.

The length of time a person can use the program is limited.

Additional Information

One transitional housing unit is available for homeless individuals and families.

Households pay 30 percent of their income toward rent. They rent the units for up to 24 months while participating in case management with a social worker and working to achieve goals.

The housing is provided through a partnership with Three Rivers Community Action.
