Thanks to 5Cities Homeless Coalition’s intensive case management, more than 90% of families we help house remain housed at least one year later. Case management is a top priority, empowering our clients to take control of their finances and overcome barriers through programs such as Rapid Re-Housing, Eviction Prevention, Immediate Needs, Homeless Youth Outreach and Mentoring, Supportive Services for Veteran Families, Medical Respite and Benefits Advocacy.
