Providing Independence and Security through Our Job and Housing Retention Program
Breaking the cycle of homelessness means never coming back.
Getting a job or finding a home is difficult. Holding onto either one can be even more challenging.
Traditional approaches to homelessness often focus on immediate needs, like securing shelter and basic necessities. While this initial support is crucial, it can be challenging to maintain stable housing and employment without ongoing assistance.
That's where Inspirica takes a different approach.
To make sure we break the cycle of homelessness, we do something unusual: we continue to work with our clients long after they get a job and leave us.
With our job and housing retention program, our Retention Specialists work side-by-side with clients who are working or living independently to identify and assess risk factors before they become full-blown crises.
When we identify an issue, we act on it quickly, including connecting clients to essential services, contacting employers or landlords to advocate on their behalf, and much more -- all before they lose their jobs or homes. We help with everything from work schedules and child care to transportation and higher-than-expected utility bills.
Our investment in job and housing retention is unusual and it works.
69% of the clients we place in permanent housing remain housed (and paying rent) 12 months later
