Helping Combat
Homelessness
SMG's Housing Support Program provides ongoing support to low-income populations, veterans and seniors, promoting housing retention and continued self-sufficiency for thousands of families.
At the center of the success of the program is ongoing case management for the formerly homeless. As part of every case management strategy at SMG's Housing locations, clients benefit from a needs assessment to determine which services are most critical to solve their unique barriers to housing insecurity.
Services are offered through SMG's Housing programs or through referral to the appropriate social service, government or community-based organization that can help address the person's needs most effectively.
Even after our residents have transitioned to safe and permanent housing, frequent check-ins by our caseworkers ensure the retention of housing and the financial stability of the client.
SMG has a well-developed approach to stabilize and strengthen those recovering from the multiple hardships of homelessness. Support Based Housing affords those in need a critical safety net while they work one-on-one with staff members to build skills and work towards complete independence.
At all SMG Housing Locations, our clients find support for all areas of their lives that include but are not limited to:
-
Housing counseling
-
Job Readiness
-
Housing applications
-
Financial Literacy
-
Peer Advocacy
-
Primary Medical & Behavioral Health Services
