POSITION OVERVIEW
The Housing Support Coordinator will utilize comprehensive services to secure and stabilize accommodations for individuals experiencing homelessness due to domestic violence. These services encompass, but are not limited to, housing relocation, eviction prevention, housing searches, financial guidance, housing counseling, and collaboration with community organizations, governmental bodies, and property owners.

Housing Support Coordinators must possess the flexibility to travel offsite with clients to coordinate or accompany them to appointments or other community resources. The overarching goal for all clients served is to empower them to regain control over their lives and diminish the barriers that perpetuate the cycle of abuse and lead to homelessness.
