Transitional Housing is provided for a maximum of two years. The housing is service-enriched with individual programming to help residents meet their personal and vocational goals. 

No medical care is provided in our housing programs. However, if needed, residents can bring in medical support if needed to live safely. This may mean home health aides, medical alert systems, family, care teams or nurses. If they cannot live safely with the apartment, they will be transferred to a location where they can receive appropriate care.
