The Dwelling Place defines success as a family's return to independent living -- with a job, a place to live, a support system and a sense of self-respect and dignity. In order to give each participating family an opportunity to make that successful return to self-sufficiency, the program incorporates the following features:

Affordability
The Dwelling Place provides a fully furnished apartment when a family moves in (and allows the family to take everything with them when they move out).  Each month, they contribute 30% of their adjusted income towards the rent. 

Length of Stay
There are numerous issues which bring our families to homelessness.  Making changes and achieving growth takes time.  The families can stay in our program for up to two years while they gain new skills, build confidence, and address problematic behavior.

Life Skills
Financial literacy, time management, parenting, communication skills, credit repair, and nutrition education are some of the areas addressed through our twice monthly workshops.  While the adults are in class, the children are receiving tutoring, homework assistance, and doing crafts..

A Goal of Self-Sufficiency
Vocational training, literacy training, effective networking techniques and interviewing skills are all part of the program. Overall, the employment-related focus is on building marketable skills so that adult family members can provide the income that independent living requires.

Underemployed parents work to identify skills and resources for acquiring marketable skills that will provide the income necessary for independent living. As they succeed, parents become role models for educational achievement in their children. With the easing of family tensions, youngster's school performance improves along with grades and test scores.
