Hillcrest Transitional Housing Revenue and Competitors

MISSION | To be a transitional housing program providing a Christian environment that helps homeless families become self-supportive, self-reliant contributors to society. ABOUT | Hillcrest Transitional Housing offers homeless families, singles and youth a disciplined educational program within a caring, supportive environment. Unlike many organizations whose focus is one-time or emergency care, Hillcrest?s primary objective is to move clients from homelessness to self-sufficiency by addressing the total life situation of the homeless families they serve. TRANSITIONAL HOUSING FOR ADULTS & YOUTH | The transitional housing program focuses on moving clients to self-sufficiency within a 90-day time frame; households with more barriers to permanent housing may receive longer term transitional housing assistance. Hillcrest also provides a transitional housing program for homeless teens and young adults, ages 16-20, who have an educational goal. This unique program offers housing and supportive services for up to 24 months. In exchange for rent- and utility-free housing, adults are required by written agreement to find full-time employment, obey program guidelines and attend weekly volunteer-taught classes in life skills, employment, community living and budgeting. Through a network of community supporters and funders, Hillcrest also may provide transitional housing clients with car repair/donation, food, medical assistance, dental work, GED classes, haircuts, glasses, school clothes, work uniforms, etc. RAPID RE-HOUSING | Hillcrest also provides programming and services called Rapid Re-Housing through its service offices in Clay & Clinton Counties in Missouri, to literally homeless youth, singles & families who are seeking housing in the Northland, Northern MO & Northwestern MO.
