Kansas City short term housing and shelter.
Families facing eviction or that are homeless in Kansas City can receive assistance. Several non-profits, charities, and government organizations provide short term shelter and transitional housing programs as well. While the demand for help is very high and there is usually a waiting list, many of these resources have assisted families during their times of struggle.
Not only will a participant get a place to stay, but they will also be able to enroll into case management, job programs, and other social services. These agencies in Kansas City fully realize that is the key to addressing the root cause of homelessness and poverty.
In addition, a social worker will dedicate time to helping you find a new, low income housing unit or place to live over the long term. This can include information on programs for paying rent, deposits, or moving costs. So while the transitional housing is meant to be short term, you will also be able to benefit from a wide array of other services and assistance programs.
