Housing at COI

One of the most powerful services COI provides is transformational housing for men, women and families – we work very hard with our clients to help them move from being homeless (or vulnerable to homelessness) to living in a place they can call home.

Transformational housing offers specialized case management services, peer support, and access to all of the other services COI provides, including food pantries, mental health counseling, drug and alcohol abuse prevention, medical and dental clinics, and childcare.

While we believe that transition from homelessness to secure housing is where the real magic of COI happens, we realize that not everyone is ready to make permanent changes in their lives, and for that reason, we also offer emergency shelter for men, women and families. Emergency shelter gets people off the streets and safe, while they make decisions about where their next step might be. (And for many, the next step is to our transformational housing.)

Everyone who uses COI’s transformational housing and emergency shelter is expected to be practicing sobriety and behaviorally appropriate.
