Programs described in its return (3)
- $619,379 spent. EMERGENCY HOUSING AND RENTAL ASSISTANCE: Emergency Housing ProgramClients who are unsheltered, or living on the streets, are provided with temporary, emergency shelter during times of medical need, when awaiting permanent housing placement, and in other qualifying circumstances. This is accomplished through partnerships with local hotels who accept payment directly from TCCC for the clients stay. Clients receiving emergency housing assistance also receive case management services to address both their immediate needs and begin to identify permanent housing solutions for them. Rental Assistance ProgramTCCC assists clients exiting homelessness or transitioning from un-stabilized housing into a stabilized, permanent housing setting with rental payments. We typically pay the deposit and/or the first month of rent for the client and provide case management to assist clients with being able to take over the rental payments on their own following the assistance. Case managers assist with employment searches, benefits enrollment, and identifying other sources of funding for rental assistance. For instance, this past year, we enrolled 913 clients in government benefits like TANF, SSI/SSDI, and SNAP. In 2025, we provided over $470,00 in rental deposits and rental assistance, benefitting 277 households.
