Supportive Housing

In addition to emergency shelter and the services provided there, we have over 100 units of supportive housing in apartment complexes throughout the community for post-shelter care. Our case managers are embedded in or mobilized to these apartment complexes for ongoing support. This can include monthly home visits, help with lease commitments, assistance with maintenance issues, and connection to resources.

Types of supportive housing programs include project-based vouchers through the Dallas Housing Authority, Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) for families who have specifically documented disabilities, and Rapid Rehousing for families who have relatively fewer barriers to self-sufficiency and are capable of quickly regaining and sustaining stability.

In 2023:

• We served 218 families in supportive housing.
• 48% of families increased their income during their supportive housing stay (HUD benchmark = 20%).
• 98% of families served in supportive housing remained stably housed (HUD benchmark = 77%)
