Important Update: We are no longer accepting applications for the 2024 term. Please check back for future announcements.

Healthy Homes. Healthy Communities.

Housing Support Services are the latest addition to our growing list of agency services. COVID-19 has touched every household within the last year and many individuals lost their housing due to COVID-19 related job loss and illness.

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH)

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) program is geared towards helping the chronically homeless population attain residential stability.  The goal is to help them get back on their feet by giving them the tools they need, through one-on-one case management, to become self-sufficient using a holistic approach. All referrals are received from the Coalition for the Homeless.

To determine if you are eligible for Permanent Supportive Housing you must be assessed at one of Houston’s designated Coordinated Access sites. Information can be obtained at Houston’s ​Coalition for the Homeless - The Way Home/Get Help

Homeless Prevention (HP)

HP is geared towards helping households that are at risk of homelessness maintain their current housing. (See below)

The Youth Homeless Demonstration Program (YHDP)

The Youth Homeless Demonstration Program (YHDP) is a US Department of Housing and Urban Development funded demonstration program to end unaccompanied youth homelessness for individuals ages 18 to 24. YHDP serves the most vulnerable youth with its low barrier to entry, innovative adaptation of Housing First Principles, youth-centered case management, and positive youth development components, resulting in housing stability and self-sufficiency.

To determine if you are eligible for The Youth Homeless Demonstration Program you must be assessed at one of Houston’s designated Coordinated Access sites. Information can be obtained at Houston’s ​Coalition for the Homeless - The Way Home/YHDP Resources
