Mission Statement
Famly HomeStead's mission is to "...house homeless families and end homelessness for individual families in our program in the Metro Denver Area...."
Description
Family HomeStead provides emergency and transitional housing and supportive case management to homeless families with children. Believingthat families with children do not belong in shelters, we place families in 31 emergency and 58 transitional apartments located in Denver and Jefferson County, CO. Case managers assist each family as the parents work to take charge of their family's life, develop a reliable income, and locate permanent affordable housing.
Client outcome objectives are that, upon program completion, 75% of families will have next-step housing, 75% will have income to support next-step housing, and 75% will effectively address the issues that caused their homelessness as identified in their case plan. Families meet or exceed these objectives year after year.
