About Us

Woman-smiling-by-red-door

For over 25 years, United Housing Connections has been on a mission to make homelessness a brief, rare, and nonrecurring event.

Through meaningful partnerships with nonprofits, community leaders, companies, and generous donors and volunteers, we’re able to advocate on behalf of our neighbors experiencing homelessness. We do this by providing an array of safe housing options and holistic care for homeless youth, individuals, and families. This approach sets our clients up for success by empowering, supporting, and offering resources on their path to become housed and independent.       

 

We help prevent low income and at-risk people from entering the cycle of homelessness, including unaccompanied youth, families, individuals, victims of domestic violence, veterans, the elderly, and mentally and physically disabled people who are currently experiencing homelessness.

I have experienced being homeless but never knew how to keep stable. Thanks to this program I can rest assured with stability and resources to keep me from being homeless again. I feel blessed and have a safe place to live in a wonderful home and community! I am extremely grateful!
