Our philosophy is Housing First. We know that getting someone into a safe, secure place is often the key to success in other areas of life. Our agency utilizes this approach in all aspects of our work and at all of our locations.
For families, our case managers work closely with each family to help them access services, benefits, workforce training, job opportunities and search for housing opportunities.
For individuals, our Yawkey Housing Resource Center (HRC) and Smith Family Housing Resource Center will offer a robust menu of daytime services that will make the HRC appealing to anyone in need of housing assistance, whether they are utilizing a shelter bed or not.
Rehousing Services
We help people who are at risk of losing housing or who are coming out of homelessness.
Case managers work with each person to understand their needs and help them find housing as quickly as possible. We also help connect people to health care and other support they may need.
Health Care Clinics
Manet Community Health Center runs a full-service health clinic at the Yawkey Housing Resource Center.
Brockton Neighborhood Health Center runs the clinic at the Smith Family Housing Resource Center.
People can get basic health care at both locations.
Co-located Partner Resources
Our Housing Resource Centers (HRCs) work with community partners to offer more support in one place.
These services can help with mental health, substance use, and recovery support. We also provide space for learning, meetings, and other programs that help people build stability.
Workforce Development
For families, our WorkReady Family team helps people find jobs. This includes job fairs, networking, and job training.
We also offer workshops on resumes, job skills, stress management, and customer service.
For individuals, we work with local partners to connect people to job opportunities and employment services.
