Eligibility Considerations

  • Families requiring housing stabilization support following a domestic violence crisis.
  • Survivors who lack the resources or support networks to obtain safe, permanent housing independently.

Possible Housing Pathways

Rapid Rehousing

Financial assistance and case management to help survivors quickly find and secure permanent housing in the community.

Housing Stability Vouchers

Coordination and referral for specialized federal vouchers intended for individuals and families fleeing domestic violence.

Important Clarification

Not a 24-Hour Hotline: United Housing Assistance is not a crisis intervention center. If you are experiencing an immediate emergency or are in danger, please call 911 or contact a dedicated hotline immediately.

Not an Emergency Shelter: We coordinate housing stability and referrals. While we help navigate pathways to safe permanent housing, we do not operate our own emergency safe house or shelter facility.

Not a Legal Agency: Our role is supportive social service coordination. We provide housing assistance and referral support but do not provide legal representation or act as a law enforcement agency.

Not a Clinical Health Provider: We focus on the physical security and stability provided by safe housing. We do not provide clinical mental health therapy or medical healthcare treatments directly.
