Transitional Housing Program
TRANSITIONAL HOUSING - THE LOUISON HOUSE PROVIDES A TRANSITIONAL HOUSING SHELTER THAT HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE SINCE 1990. AS A CONGREGATE LIVING SHELTER, LOUISON HOUSE CAN HOUSE BOTH FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS FOR UP TO TWO YEARS BUT AIMS TO GET PEOPLE OUT TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE AVERAGE STAY AT OUR SHELTER HAS INCREASED TO 5-6 MONTHS DUE TO HIGHER RENTS AND LONGER WAIT LISTS IN OUR AREA. ENTRANCE TO THE SHELTER IS PRIORITIZED ACCORDING TO FEDERAL HUD GUIDELINES: BY LEVEL OF HOMELESSNESS (LENGTH, ETC.), WEIGHTED BY OTHER FEDERAL PRIORITIES (DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SAFETY, DISABILITIES, ETC.). ALL RESIDENTS WORK ON AN INDIVIDUAL SERVICE PLAN WITH STAFF WITH THE MAJOR GOAL OF OVERCOMING ANY BARRIERS THEY MAY HAVE TO SUCCESSFULLY OBTAIN HOUSING. A RANGE OF SUPPORTIVE SERVICES ARE OFFERED, INCLUDING CASE MANAGEMENT, BUDGET/FINANCIAL COUNSELING, EDUCATION/CAREER PLANNING, JOB/HOUSING SEARCH ASSISTANCE AND LIFE-SKILLS TRAINING. THE PURPOSE OF THE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM IS TO HELP OUR RESIDENTS OBTAIN AFFORDABLE HOUSING WITH THE INCOME NECESSARY TO AT LEAST MEET THEIR BASIC LIVING NEEDS AND TO ASSIST THEM TO REACH THEIR PERSONAL GOALS. MOST OF OUR RESIDENTS SECURE PERMANENT HOUSING UPON EXIT AND EITHER MAINTAIN OR INCREASE THEIR INCOME BY THE TIME THEY LEAVE OUR HOUSING.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2023 – Sep 30, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$561.6KPermanent Supportive Housing Program
