**SUMMARY OF POSITION**:
The Housing Placement and Stabilization Specialist (HPSS) will partner with shelter guests to reduce barriers to housing and housing supports utilizing actionable decisions and individual housing plans that will rapidly lead to safe, affordable housing with the supports necessary to sustain achieved housing. Once the guest is housed, the HPSS will provide stabilization services to ensure the guest does not return to shelter and can achieve independent living in the community. The HPSS will work within a team to execute sustainable and expeditious housing plans. At times, these tasks may be done in conjunction with community partners. Through all stages of the program, the HPSS will utilize progressive engagement; least amount of support needed to be successful. A key component of the work with guests is successfully connecting individuals to assets, which increase income and mainstream benefits, and supports which increases stability while in housing. The HPSS will facilitate on-going communication between the guest, housing authorities, property owners and community programs and partners. The HPSS will also develop Individual Service Plans (ISP) as part of the transition from transitional housing to permanent housing. The HPSS will also develop and help educate individuals with skills that better helps them to manage money and be good neighbors and tenants.

- All people experiencing homelessness, regardless of their housing history and duration of homelessness, can achieve housing stability in permanent housing.
- Never warehouse or institutionalize our guests in our shelters.
- Everyone is “housing ready.” Sobriety, compliance in treatment, or even a clean criminal history is not necessary to succeed in housing. Rather, homelessness programs and housing providers must be “consumer ready”.
- Leverage guests’ strengths, assets, and connections to move quickly out of shelters and to any other housing.
- Recognize the impact of violence and victimization on development and coping strategies
- Employ an empowerment model
- Maximize guest choices and control over her/his recovery based in a relational collaboration
