SUMMARY:Learn About The Host Homes/Shared Housing Program
DESCRIPTION:Learn About The Santa Cruz Host Homes/Shared Housing Program\nThursday\, January 9\, 6:30pm \nBill Wilson Center’s Shared Housing/Host Home Program is looking for people who can provide temporary housing (up to 6 months) in a safe and welcoming environment for former foster youth and LGBTQ+/allied young adults (ages 18-24) who are experiencing housing instability. \nThe Host Homes/Shared Housing Program partner will be provided with monthly rental assistance (up to $1\,500) for providing temporary shelter to our former foster youth and LGBTQ+/allied youth. \n\nHosts can be families\, couples or singles who are allies of former foster youth and the LGBTQ+ community.\nBill Wilson Center will match a young adult to approved host homes.\nHost homes can be located anywhere in Santa Cruz County.\nHosts receive ongoing training and 24/7 support from BWC case managers.\n\nCome meet Valerie Arno\, the coordinator for this program\, and learn more about how you can be the change by becoming a Host Home Mentor! \nMore info here \nThe Host Homes/Shared Housing Program\, community-driven & community-powered\nHost homes are a growing\, global\, short-term housing intervention for young people experiencing homelessness. Building off the continued legacy of QTBIPOC mutual aid practices\, host homes provide young people experiencing housing instability with affirming\, stable\, short-term housing for 1-6 months\, wrap-around case management services\, and peer support. \nThe goal of short-term host homes is to provide a safe\, temporary\, welcoming space for up to six months where young people have time to repair their relationships with self-identified and chosen family and/or make decisions about other housing options with the support of a caring housing case manager and affirming adult mentor. \n
