Bridge Housing Emergency Shelter
The goal of Dawning Family Services is to help as many families as possible to avoid needing shelter altogether. Sometimes, however, households have nowhere else to go and shelter is unavoidable.
Our bridge housing is short-term and offers a path for families to actively engage in ending their homelessness through the obtainment of permanent housing. We use a Housing First approach guided by the belief that housing is the foundation for life improvement and that this most basic necessity needs to be met before they can attend to other concerns. This approach does not have barriers to entry or mandatory participation requirements. Once the family is permanently housed, they are engaged in supportive services to assist them with problems affecting family well-being and to ensure that housing is retained.
