In partnership with the Bill Wilson Center, ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø Cares offers the Rapid Rehousing Program to support students experiencing homelessness in securing and maintaining stable, permanent housing. Through a combination of case management and financial assistance, the program helps students transition into independent living while building long-term housing stability.

Program Support Includes:

  • Collaborative Case Management
    Ongoing support from ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø Cares and community partners to help navigate housing, financial planning, and personal goals
  • Tiered Rental Support
    Financial assistance that gradually decreases over time as students increase their financial independence
  • Lease Independence
    Support in securing and maintaining a lease in the student’s name
