Transitional Housing

Transitional housing programs for families, individuals, and youth are supportive housing programs that are temporary but designed to be an intermediate step between emergency shelter and permanent housing. 

Eligibility requirements and programming vary, but most programs offer structure, supervision, support, and life skills. 

Families are connected to transitional housing through the Virginia Williams Family Resource Center (VWFRC). Individuals and youth are connected through Coordinated Assessment and Housing Placement (CAHP)
 

Locations 

Transitional housing programs are operated by non-profit organizations under contract with DHS.
