Rapid Re-Housing Program
This program assists persons experiencing homelessness to be quickly stabilized and re-housed in permanent housing. Priority is given to households residing in emergency shelters and transitional housing.
A key goal of Rapid Re-Housing is to shorten the family's length of stay in a shelter.
Individuals and families that can benefit from this program are:
- earn less than 50 percent of the Area Median Income ($35,000)
- employed or have other sources of income
- homeless
Once accepted to the program, participants immediately begin working with a housing specialist in an effort to identify safe, affordable housing. They also work closely with a family advocate who helps identify any barriers to their sustaining self-sufficiency. The ultimate goal is for families and individuals to "time-out" of the program and be able to maintain housing on their own.
