What Happens When Our Support System Can’t Provide What We Need?

How do we prepare for the unexpected? One large, unexpected expense can throw us off course in dramatic ways. Most of us lean on our support system in times of financial crisis, but what if they don’t have the means to help out? When bills become overwhelming, we’re here to offer a hand. And help set you up for stability in the future.

A helping hand is a click away

What’s a “shared lease”?

It means we’re partners. We lease from priority landlords in the neighborhood and sublet their spaces to community members in need of transitional housing. We’re essentially inviting you to share the lease with us, because we value your contribution to the beloved community. We offer:

  • Subsidized rent
  • Assistance paying off an eviction, if you have one
  • Help preparing you for a rental of your choosing, or even home ownership

Break the cycle

Put housing struggles behind you. There are so many reasons why any one of us can have difficulty maintaining reliable housing. We know everyone’s issues are unique. And we know that they don’t just affect us, but our entire household. That’s why we provide personalized life coaching to help identify the root cause of issues, prevent them in the future, and heal any harm that lingers into the present.
