The Brownlee Transitional Housing Program is an eighteen month transitional
housing program designed to give homeless families an opportunity to acquire the
necessary skills in maintaining permanent housing. Brownlee Transitional Housing
offers 10 apartment units with on-site mentors. The population served is single
and two-parent families who are presently homeless and/or income is below $597
per month. SHP funds provide assistance with supportive services and basic
operations expenses, which include child care, transportation, utilities,
repairs, equipment, supplies and rental insurance. Grant funds awarded under the
1997 SHP have been expended, however, the project received a three year renewal
funding under the 2000 SHP for the continued delivery of services and is
currently operating.
