FAQs

How long do homeless people stay in your housing?
It varies. The congregation-based shelter programs limit residence to six months, though some individuals have received extensions. The limit in The Haven, a transitional shelter program for women, is one year. Our two group homes, Veronica House and Zeke’s House, are considered permanent housing for the five residents in each house, although some have moved on to independent apartments. All of the apartments served by Friendship Place are considered the resident’s permanent home.
