Transitional Housing and Independent Living Program (T.H.I.L.)

Objectives:

Housing Stability: We provide temporary housing accommodation for individuals who are on the verge of experiencing homelessness, offering a safe and supportive environment conducive to personal growth and stability.

Supportive Services: We offer comprehensive support services including case management, counseling, life skills training, and access to healthcare resources to address the underlying causes of homelessness and promote self-sufficiency.

Community Integration: We facilitate community engagement and social integration through partnerships with local organizations, volunteer opportunities, and educational workshops to empower participants and foster a sense of belonging.

Transition to Permanent Housing: We develop individualized transition plans for participants, connecting them with permanent housing options, employment opportunities, and other resources to ensure a successful transition out of the program.

Health Outcomes: By offering stable housing, individuals are more likely to address their own health care needs and receive early health care interventions.
