Permanent Supportive Housing
Too many people never really escape homelessness. When struggling with severe and persistent mental illness or substance use disorder, they often move from crisis to crisis; losing a job, getting evicted, losing healthcare is often followed by receiving short-term help. Once this help ends, however, the cycle of homelessness often repeats. Using a “Housing First” model of care, combined with long-term housing and supports, we stop the cycle of chronic homelessness and get people on track to a stable life.
If you or your family are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless, please call our region’s coordinated entry line at 1-844-800-9911 or NH211 (www.nh211.org). This system is not run by the Harbor Care, but will find you a best-fit program, which often is one of ours.
How It Works
Harbor Care often prioritizes its housing for veterans and individuals and families living with disabilities, including behavioral health disorders such as mental illness or substance abuse disorders, physical disabilities, or those living with chronic illness such as HIV/ AIDS.
Our housing comes in a variety of forms – from shared houses to apartment complexes to “vouchers” that allow a client to choose their own home within the community. In all cases, rent remains affordable, with clients paying a portion of their income towards rent. Our housing often comes bundled together with services, such as case management, to help clients find employment, obtain entitlements and benefits for them and their families, and avoid returning to homelessness.
Programs include:
Permanent Supportive Housing Program, for chronically homeless individuals through federal subsidies (non-voucher).
Mainstream Voucher Program, for chronically homeless individuals through a federal voucher.
Boulder Point, a project-based HUD-VASH (Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing) voucher program for veterans. See Veterans Services for more information.
Harbor Care also operate other federally subsidized properties, which helps us offer lower rents to qualified community members. Available units are featured on our current housing openings page.
