Mission and programs · 2024

• EMERGENCY SHELTER: THROUGH THE EMERGENCY SHELTER COMPONENT, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES TEMPORARY EMERGENCY SHELTER TO PARENTS WITH CHILDREN WHO ARE HOMELESS IN OUR COMMUNITY. THIS SHORT-TERM (UP TO 90-DAY) SUPPORT OFFERS SAFETY AND SERVICES TO FAMILIES SEEKING EMERGENCY SHELTER, INCLUDING THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN TURNED AWAY FROM OTHER SHELTERS IN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY. FAMILIES IN EMERGENCY SHELTER ARE PROVIDED WITH ESSENTIAL SERVICES INCLUDING: CASE MANAGEMENT INCORPORATING THE PRINCIPLES OF TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE, HOUSING SEARCH AND PLACEMENT ASSISTANCE, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (IN THE FORM OF CASH BENEFITS AND RENT AND UTILITIES) TO HELP THEM MOVE INTO PERMANENT HOUSING, AND POST-SHELTER SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO ENSURE STABILITY ONCE PERMANENTLY HOUSED. THIS HOUSING FIRST APPROACH MOVES FAMILIES MORE QUICKLY INTO PERMANENT HOUSING. A MAJOR U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING & URBAN DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH EFFORT OFFERS COMPELLING EVIDENCE THAT HOUSING FIRST STRATEGIES ARE SUPERIOR FOR REDUCING HOMELESSNESS FOR FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN COMPARED TO TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS AND EXCLUSIVE EMERGENCY SHELTER INTERVENTIONS. IN 2025, 85 FAMILIES WERE PROVIDED WITH SHORT-TERM EMERGENCY SHELTER (102 ADULTS AND 209 CHILDREN).
