Hannah’s family is making great strides towards transitioning out of HomeStretch by December 2024. She has boosted her income from $15 to $20 per hour and significantly reduced her $158k medical debt by 63%. She’s also become a valued member of her community, providing after-school childcare support. Both sons are progressing well academically and in sports, with targeted interventions in place to ensure continued success. With diagnoses of learning disabilities, they are now performing at grade level. With clear family roles and rules, they’re moving forward positively with the help of HomeStretch.
As shown through Hannah’s story, HomeStretch uses the 2Gen approach to support children and adults in their lives together through providing affordable housing.
The HomeStretch supportive housing program accommodates up to 23 families for up to 2 years. The program provides comprehensive wrap around services and partners with families to help them co-invest in themselves and their children. Working collaboratively with our Program team, participants’ needs are identified and assessed, constraints are recognized and surmounted, and goals are created and tracked. These goals include moving closer to living wage employment, savings 3 months of living expenses, achieving a minimum 680-credit score, and acquiring permanent housing. Our holistic approach recognizes that clients are the experts of their own life. We aim to educate, uplift and motivate our clients to drive true and lasting generational change. When clients transition, they are prepared to acquire and sustain housing.
The HomeStretch Affordable housing program accommodates up to 16 families for up to 3 years. The program provides below market rate housing to individuals in need of affordable housing options. Participants are provided with a Client Advisor to assess where they are, and hone in on the areas that require support to prepare them for renting at market rate. The coaching centers around key areas; education, career advancement, economic and family stability. Our goal is to provide participants with the additional time, tools and resources needed to support them in their efforts to gain self-sufficiency. When a client transitions, they are prepared to rent at market rate and or purchase a home.
The goals of the HomeStretch Youth Programs are to collaborate with our parents to improve our participants academic performance, reduce risky behaviors and ensure healthy social emotional development.
