Ridgeland Apartments & Children's Program

The program provides subsidized and permanent housing, along with comprehensive support services to homeless victims and survivors of domestic violence. This two-phase program was established in 1991 and helps families transition from homelessness into permanent housing while developing skills to maintain an independent and secure lifestyle. Phase One is a two-year program that includes subsidized rent and a full range of supportive services for the family. In Phase Two, having successfully completed Phase One, the family can choose to become a permanent tenant paying full-market rent.
