This amazing organzation assists homeless families in making the transition from homelessness to self-sufficiency in a structured but home-like environment through several housing programs. Nicholas House (NHI) is committed to assisting its families attain three goals that form the basis of self-sufficiency:
Earning a living wage;
Maintaining the physical, mental and social health of parents and children;
Maintaining safe and stable housing.
Nicholas House understands that providing basic subsistence – food and shelter – is necessary but not sufficient to prevent most homeless families from becoming homeless again. That is why they provide wrap-around housing services and follow families for up to two years after graduation from their programs to ensure that they remain self-sufficient and stably housed.
