Youth Transitional
Housing & Rapid
Rehousing
Providing safe, supportive housing for young people as they work toward independence through life skills training, education, and employment readiness.
Youth Transitional Housing
A safe place to land. A steady path forward.
Whether someone is fleeing violence, exiting systems of care, or navigating the chaos of homelessness, this program offers stability and hope for the journey ahead. Our Youth Transitional Housing program is a place where young adults ages 18–24 can begin to heal, grow, and rebuild.
Each young person receives a private unit to call their own for up to 24 months. To help them settle in, we provide a move-in kit with essentials like a bed, cookware, dishes, towels, bedding, and cleaning supplies. With a caring case manager by their side, participants set goals, build life skills, and take steps toward independence at their own pace.
Support includes:
- Daily or weekly check-ins with a case manager who truly listens
- Life skills coaching — like budgeting, cooking, and resolving conflict
- Help finding and keeping a job
- Support enrolling in school or completing a GED
- Connection to behavioral health and peer support
- Assistance with medical care, transportation, and legal needs
We lease the housing, and participants live under a master-lease arrangement. It’s a protected way to learn the responsibilities of being a tenant — without the fear of losing housing over mistakes. There are no strings attached: participants don’t have to meet income requirements or commit to services to stay housed. Everyone deserves a place to feel safe, no matter where they’re starting from.
Many young people who begin in our Transitional Housing program go on to join our Rapid Re-Housing program — building on what they’ve learned and moving closer to full independence with our continued support.
Youth Rapid Re-Housing
Because everyone deserves a key to their own front door.
For many young people, the biggest barrier to stability is simply not having a place to live. Our Rapid Re-Housing program changes that — quickly moving youth ages 18–24 from homelessness into their own apartment, with flexible support to stay housed and build toward a brighter future.
Participants sign their own leases and can receive rental assistance and one-on-one support for up to 12 months. There are no hoops to jump through — just a belief that housing is the foundation for everything else.
Support includes:
- Housing search and landlord coordination
- Move-in support and rental assistance
- Flexible case management focused on staying housed and moving forward
- Employment support and job-readiness coaching
- Education planning and personal goal setting
- Connections to healthcare, behavioral health, and peer support
- Thoughtful aftercare planning to ensure lasting success
Participants are in the driver’s seat — setting their own goals, pace, and the types of support that work best for them. Case managers walk alongside them, offering guidance and helping navigate challenges like limited rental history, credit issues, or employment gaps. They also help youth stay connected to the services and resources that support long-term stability.
Rapid Re-Housing is often the next step after Transitional Housing — a bridge to lasting independence, confidence, and self-sufficiency. But whether it’s a first step or the next chapter, every young person in this program is treated with dignity, trust, and the belief that they can thrive.
