Every January, communities nationwide conduct the Point-in-Time Count, a one-night count of the number of people experiencing homelessness in America.
HUD just released the January 2024 PIT Count Report: hud.gov/press/press_releases…
ALT HUD just released the results of the 2024 Point-in-Time Count. No American should face homelessness, and HUD remains steadfast in our commitment to provide families with the quality, affordable homes they deserve. Visit hud.gov/press to find the data.
TY to the wonderful students of the Oakland Mills High School POMs who held a Welcome Home Basket drive for our clients this month. With the help of the community, they were able to put together 25 baskets full of supplies to help their neighbors in need settle into a new home!
Thank you to everyone who supported our clients during the holiday season with gifts!🎄🎁

Security deposits are sometimes just as high as the rent, meaning clients have to pay nearly 2 months of rent before they can move in.

Too many of our residents experience housing instability and homelessness. By offering emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, and supportive services, we are striving to ensure that our neighbors feel seen heard and loved, especially during these cold months.
