The Emergency Housing Program
serves homeless families that
come to us with many complex
problems such as addictions,
abusive relationships and poor
life skills. Housing is provided
in one of Shelter Care's 14
apartments for a maximum
of 90 days. Case Managers work
with families to develop weekly
goals in employment, education,
child services and housing to
ensure transition into a more
stable lifestyle. SCM, in
cooperation with many other
community providers, offers
support services to our
families.
