Housing Overview

Everyone needs a place to call home.

We believe housing is an essential need that must be met to successfully prevent and break
the cycle of homelessness. Barriers faced by people experiencing homelessness are
overwhelming and extremely challenging to overcome without a safe and secure place to
call home.

Housing First Approach

Housing First is an approach focused on prioritizing housing in the delivery of homelessness support. Putting permanent housing first in the development of programs and services for families and individuals creates a platform for them to achieve an improved overall quality
of life. Finding employment, addressing health and wellness issues, and recovering from the traumatic impacts of homelessness are made possible with a stable home.

Housing Options

Families in Transition provides housing options to meet people where they’re at in
every stage of their journey as they work to exit homelessness. Our properties are located in
two major cities in the state, Concord and Manchester.

Affordable Housing

People who fall within established income requirements can secure affordable housing at one of the Families in Transition properties. Residents benefit from living in their own unit and receive long-term housing assistance. For many families and individuals, this is just the
stepping-stone they need on their journey to overcoming homelessness.

Permanent Supportive Housing

Similar to affordable housing, residents of permanent supportive housing at Families in Transition live in their own apartment unit. They receive the additional benefit of an assigned and dedicated case manager who works with them to set and achieve personal goals and
break down barriers to exiting homelessness and maintaining stability.
