Program accomplishments

  • Roads to Recovery - Providing case management for the most complex cases; individuals who experience the intersection of repeated incarceration and justice involvements, substance abuse disorders, acute behavioral health problems, and homelessness. We meet with them at least once a week to provide transitional into permanent housing, food, clothing, transportation, cell phones and other basic needs. We also facilitate connecting them with medical, mental, behavioral health, and recovery services as well as joining healthy community groups and supports. When appropriate, our team helps them gain income though disability benetifs or employment; assisting with applications, resumes & job searches. In 2025, the TRC team robustly worked with 96 individuals regularly, connected 72 with medical & behavioral healthcare and treatment, placed 31 individuals in Sober Living Homes, helped find employment for 43, and moved 37 into permanent housing.

  • Housing Stability Case Management - Providing continuing support to over 100 of our disabled clients from the past 7 years who were chronically unhoused. We found them housing, income through employment and disability benefits and now continue to check in with them to make sure they have the resources and community support to remain secure and stable. We check in regularly with 20 individuals and annually with another 70-80. The assistance we provide ranges from all kinds of basic needs (food, phones, transportation, clothing, household items, and vital records) to medical & mental health services, benefits acquistion and maintenance, and help with employment (job searches, resumes, work clothes). Knowing that not all things are solved by a house, TRC continues to check in & work with these families and individuals as they move forward to make sure they dont feel isolated or abandoned.
