​Homeward Bound:

​

The Homeward Bound program is a compassionate initiative aimed at reuniting individuals experiencing homelessness with supportive family or friends who can provide stable housing and emotional support. The goal is to offer a sustainable path out of homelessness by:

• Identifying willing and able family/friend connections through outreach and case management.

• Assessing the viability and safety of reunification.

• Providing travel assistance, such as bus, train, or plane tickets.

• Offering pre-travel support, such as temporary shelter, food, clothing, and help obtaining IDs.

• Coordinating with the receiving party to ensure ongoing support and follow-up.
   

This approach recognizes that homelessness is often not just about lack of housing, but also about the breakdown of personal support networks. By restoring those connections, Homeward Bound seeks to create a more humane, cost-effective, and lasting solution for individuals ready to reconnect and rebuild their lives.

Emergency Shelters & Day Centers:​

​

To address the urgent needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness, we operate several short-term emergency shelters across the region. These shelters are part of a broader national effort to combat homelessness by providing immediate, safe, and supportive housing for:

• Men

• Women

• Families with children
   

Each shelter offers more than just a place to sleep. We provide:

• Nutritious meals

• Access to hygiene facilities

• Case management and referrals

• Connection to housing resources, employment services, and healthcare
   

Our goal is to not only meet immediate needs but also to serve as a stepping stone toward stable, long-term housing and self-sufficiency.

Financial Aid Services:

​

Financial Aid Services offers critical financial assistance to eligible residents facing housing instability. Our program is designed to prevent homelessness and support successful transitions into stable housing by providing help with:

• Past-due rent to avoid eviction

• Move-in costs, such as security deposits and first month's rent, for residents who have already identified and been approved for a new rental unit

• Utility bill assistance to maintain essential services like electricity, gas, and water

​

We work closely with individuals and families to assess eligibility, provide financial relief, and connect them with additional housing resources as needed. Our goal is to support housing stability and ensure every resident has the opportunity for a safe and secure place to call home.
