Permanent Supportive Housing

Five one-bedroom permanent supportive housing apartments will be co-located at the new Safe Haven Welcome Center. These units will be targeted towards young adults in crisis. They will be able to receive supportive services including counseling, job skills training, and independent living skills on-site.

The supportive services for residents will be based on a European model created by the Foyer Federation for Youth, an organization established in the United Kingdom in 1992 to share a model for "meeting the needs of young people during their transition from dependence to independence by linking affordable accommodations to training and employment." Safe Haven is a member of the Foyer Federation, who says that all young people need a home, support and a springboard into independent living, learning and work. Foyer fills the gap for those youth who lack this support.
