HomeStart’s solution to homelessness is simple: Housing First.

At HomeStart, “Housing First” means that our first priority for every person is a stable housing situation. We then work with each person’s individual needs to provide services and support to make sure they are able to remain housed.

Since 1994, HomeStart has helped more than 4,000 homeless people move to their own homes. Ending Homelessness. Changing Lives. HomeStart.
