About
Housing stabilization programs - see schedule. Hope's housing stabilization programs seek to prevent homelessness by providing rent assistance and information and referral services. It operates five major housing programs funded through the city of New Rochelle, Westchester Department of Social Services, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and New York State. All these programs offer critical housing support for clients. City of New Rochelle Re-housing Initiative (CNR) is a permanent housing program for eligible homeless residents of Westchester who have substance abuse and/or mental health disabilities. The program benefits individuals who are deemed to be housing-ready with a focus on homeless veterans. In addition to placing them in housing, the program provides case management and referrals to supportive services. It is federally funded through HUD. The program provided rental assistance to 18 individuals in 2018. The Refuge is a housing program specifically for LGBTQ youth between the ages of 18 and 25. It is transitional housing, which means clients are permitted to stay in the program for a maximum of 18 months. The program is person-centered and each client will have a goal and multiple caseworkers who will assist in reaching that goal. The youth will be referred for job training, vocational programs and completion of any high school or college. We have formed a partnership with Westchester Jewish Community Services, Center Lane and The Loft. These agencies will provide both intensive case management and social interaction skills training for the clients. The program provided rental assistance to 16 individuals in 2018. STEHP assists individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness move into stable housing. The goal of the program is to assist individuals and families to prevent the eviction process, remain in permanent housing and to assist them with supportive services during their homelessness. Program components involve identifying housing locations, providing rental and other forms of financial assistance, and offering supportive services. The program coordinates community resources to ensure that program participants are linked to any necessary on-going support assistance. Particular attention is paid to employment services and employment support for participants. The programs provided rental assistance to 85 individuals during 2018.
