Supportive Housing Initiative and HUD Supportive Housing Program (SHP)
Thirty formerly chronically homeless individuals currently enjoy their own apartments, in our scattered-site apartments throughout the city.
We adopted the Housing First model in 2008 because emergency shelter and short-term services are necessary interventions for those in crisis, but they will not address the complex problems that many homeless individuals and families face.
St. Vincent De Paul Middletown, is determined to reorient our community's service system from one that manages the homeless to one that prevents and ends homelessness.
