IN 2022, FHIHN SERVED 377 FAMILIES COMPRISED OF 1,274 INDIVIDUALS, 60% OF WHOM WERE CHILDREN. 93% OF FAMILIES SERVED IN 2022 ACHIEVED STABLE HOUSING AND 92% OF THOSE FAMILIES MAINTAINED THEIR HOUSING AND DID NOT RETURN TO HOMELESSNESS WITHIN TWO YEARS. THE EMERGENCY SHELTER PROGRAM MET THE BASIC NEEDS OF 39 HOUSEHOLDS IN 2022. NORMAL OPERATIONS ARE PROVIDED WITH THE HELP OF MORE THAN 100 PARTNER CONGREGATIONS PROVIDING OVERNIGHT SHELTER SITES AND THREE DAILY MEALS AT HOUSES OF WORSHIP LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF CINCINNATI. DURING THIS TIME, THE FHIHN TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM SHUTTLED FAMILIES BETWEEN CONGREGATIONAL HOST SITES AND THE FHIHN DAY CENTER. AT THE DAY CENTER, FAMILIES WORKED WITH STAFF TO GAIN STABLE HOUSING AND INCOME. CHILDREN'S NEEDS WERE ADDRESSED THROUGH THE CHILD ENRICHMENT PROGRAM, WHICH PROVIDED SCHOOL AND DEVELOPMENTAL SUPPORT FOR 74 CHILDREN. THE PET PROGRAM EXTENDED CARE TO FOUR-LEGGED FAMILY MEMBERS, ALLOWING 171 PETS TO STAY ON- SITE OR WITH FOSTERS WHILE THEIR HUMAN FAMILIES WORKED TO ATTAIN HOUSING. IN 2022, FHIHN OPERATED ITS EMERGENCY SHELTER PROGRAM FROM AN EXTENDED-STAY STYLE HOTEL FOR PART OF THE YEAR AND THEN TRANSITIONED BACK TO THE CONGREGATION SETTING, WHERE FAMILIES COULD SAFELY SOCIALLY DISTANCE AND QUARANTINE, WHERE NEEDED. CASE MANAGEMENT AND HOUSING GOALS WERE IMPLEMENTED IN THE SAME WAY AS IN NORMAL OPERATIONS, AND THE USE OF CONGREGATIONAL VOLUNTEERS WAS LIMITED, TO ENSURE THE HEALTH AND SAFETY FOR ALL.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$863.7KCommunity Stability Programs
