LIGHTHOUSE HOUSING ALLIANCE

Description

We are a fairly new organization, beginning in October of 2023. We are currently looking for help with Intakes, Special Events Volunteers (a few times a year), Housing Advocates (working with families, helping to create a housing plan, and connecting them to resources), and families who may consider temporarily hosting another local family while they work on their housing plan. We’ve housed 5 families and helped 20 families with housing plans.

Housing Programs We Offer:
1. Temporary Housing Program (Our Current Focus)
- This program provides temporary housing in extended-stay facilities or welcoming homes, lasting from 24 hours to 3 months, based on the family's needs.
- We take time to understand each family's story and guide them toward housing stability.
- We help create a personalized Housing Plan, connect families with community resources and partner organizations, and provide wraparound support.
- Our intake process ensures we empower families without enabling dependency, and we follow a strict vetting process for both hosts and families seeking assistance.

2. One-Year Housing Program (Future Focus)
- We Eventually hope to partner with investors to purchase a home and provide a year long housing program with wrap-around support. More on this in the future
