The Homeless Prevention Program is administered by The Office of Family Support Services, Bureau of Homeless Services & Supportive Housing.
The Bureau administers four programs that address the needs of homeless families and individuals by providing food, shelter and supportive services through local not-for-profit organizations. These programs ensure that people receive quality services through a "continuum of care," ranging from outreach to those in need, emergency and transitional housing and supportive services, to assistance in gaining self-sufficiency and permanent housing.
