Description & Purpose
Pat's Place is a voluntary, transitional supportive housing program where young adults ages 18-24 can reside for up to 2 years as they prepare for a successful transition to sustainable permanent housing. The site offers private bedrooms for up to 12 residents with a shared kitchen, living room, and recreational space.
Pat's Place benefits from a team of 24/7 on-site staff who work with residents to develop and implement individualized service plans that address personal needs and goals. Care Managers link residents to needed community services, resources, and opportunities that can further support them while at Pat's Place and beyond. This transformative program is committed to providing an environment of safety, trust, and support between staff, residents, and their peers, ultimately facilitating positive journeys toward independence.
