About Supportive Housing
At Making Opportunity Count, our Supportive Housing programs provide more than just a place to live—they offer stability, safety, and ongoing support for qualified individuals and families who have experienced homelessness or housing insecurity.
Through case management, connections to community resources, and individualized supports, residents can address challenges such as employment, behavioral health, and independency while living in safe, affordable housing. Our goal is to ensure every household has the foundation they need to thrive.

Get Started
Payment
Residents contribute to their housing costs based on income and program eligibility. Rent amounts are calculated to remain affordable, ensuring no household pays more than a fair portion of their income toward housing. Payments are typically made monthly, and our staff are available to assist residents with budgeting, rent payments, and accessing financial supports when needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is eligible for Supportive Housing?
Individuals and families who are homeless and disabled, at risk of homelessness, or referred by housing agencies may qualify.
How do referrals work?
Most participants are referred through Continuum of Care, but our staff can help guide you through the process if you’re unsure where to start.
What supports are included?
In addition to housing, residents receive case management, referrals to health and behavioral health services, employment supports, and other wraparound resources.
