How Does Haven House Help People?
While providing temporary housing can help homeless people find a short-term solution, Haven House aims to go a bit further. This organization is dedicated to helping people prepare for permanent housing. In order to help people maintain steady housing, this group promotes self-sufficiency, stability, and financial responsibility.
In 2018, this group provided shelter for 110 families and ensured that 255 children were provided with a safe place to sleep. During their stay, Haven House provides a Rapid Rehousing program, which works to move the family into permanent housing. They then offer the Family Life program to provide classes on self-sufficiency.
After the family has moved into permanent housing, they work with the Partners in Progress program that will follow up on their living situation. Thanks to the comprehensive assistance of this organization, more than 91% of Haven House have lived in permanent housing for at least a year.
