Transitional Housing- They operate transitional housing programs with one goal in mind to help individuals and families obtain permanent housing as quickly as possible. Their programs serve diverse populations from women and children who are victims of domestic violence to homeless veterans who have spent years living on the streets.Permanent Supportive Housing- For many homeless people with physical or behavioral health challenges, possibly coupled with substance use issues, permanent housing paired with intensive support services may prevent chronic homelessness. Affordable Housing- The need for affordable housing and supportive services continues to grow, and Volunteers of America-Greater New York continues to respond by providing safe, supportive environments for some of the city's most vulnerable residents.

I need help about to be homeless with my 2 kid and no where to go .. please send me the right way to apply for this
I have just been released from prison. I am in a hotel provided by parole. I work 60hours a week not including weekends. I am in trading to become a financial funder for small businesses. I want to have a place of my own cause I have children I haven’t spent time with ..the people that run the hotel never have any answers about housing.
