Helping Homeless Families with Children in Grove City Area School District
Strategic Goals
1) Reduce the overall number of homeless families with children in GCSD.
2) Coordinate Continuum of Care to develop an appropriate mix of services, temporary housing, and transitional housing options in order to help people move out of homelessness as rapidly as possible. Supportive Services
1 Transitiona
l Housing (0 – 18 months*): Provide temporary residence combined with services for families experiencing homelessness. (* Length of housing is determined on a case-by-case basis.)
2) Affordable Housing: Many families can resolve their homelessness without needing either temporary or transitional housing. Partnerships between public housing agencies, landlords, and other affordable housing providers help expedite quick access to housing. Connection to Resources
Beyond housing, a range of community-based benefits and supportive services can help parents and children move out of crisis, achieve stability, and improve income, education, and well-being. A system-level transformation takes a great deal of community-level partnerships and engagement. Together We Can End Family Homelessness
An end to family homelessness requires partnerships across all levels within our community. Reaching an end to homelessness is challenging, but dramatic improvements are achievable through providing the right amount of assistance to families. For Help Call: 724-761-1221
