The Housing Opportunities Program

The Housing Opportunities Program is a pilot rapid re-housing program launched by Episcopal Community Services of San Francisco in the summer of 2016. This city-funded initiative offers 30 hard-working homeless adults a 12-month rental subsidy, support services, and direct assistance in locating affordable housing units throughout the Bay Area. Similar programs across the country have shown that temporary financial assistance combined with individually tailored social support can be an incredibly effective means of combatting homelessness and restoring self-sufficiency. We are currently working with an initial cohort of 30 single adults ranging in age from 20 to 65, and look forward to collaborating with the San Francisco Interfaith Council community to find affordable homes for our program participants. Please join us as a partner in making a difference in people's lives.
