Supportive Housing encompasses a variety of programs that provide both affordable housing opportunities and the supportive services needed to sustain that housing while working toward recovery and self-sufficiency. Supportive housing services are available in Cincinnati for both individuals and families, and includes Permanent Housing, and Transitional Housing.
Permanent Housing
Rapid Re-Housing
Rapid Re-Housing is a system which moves people experiencing homelessness into permanent housing as quickly as possible.
Permanent Supportive Housing
Permanent Supportive Housing is a combination of services and housing. Specifically, it supports people with serious mental illnesses or other disabilities who need professional care, advocacy and assistance in order to live stably in their communities. These services can include case management, substance abuse or mental health counseling, advocacy, and assistance in locating and maintaining employment.
Transitional Housing
Transitional Housing is a component of the Continuum of Care. It refers to programs that eventually facilitate the movement of homeless individuals and families into Permanent Housing.
Transitional Housing offers short- to medium-term assistance and lasts from one to 24 months. During this time, participants receive supportive services and assistance. At the end of this period, participants move from transitional housing into permanent residence.
