• Homeless Prevention

For individuals and families who are unable to pay their rent or utilities and will otherwise be displaced from their residence. Call staff to learn more about eligibility requirements.

• Rapid Re-housing

For individuals who have found potential housing but may not yet have the funds to secure that housing.
