SPOTLIGHT STORY

A family of six staying in YCAP’s Shelter struggled for months to find housing. Despite their recent progress and steady income, they faced several housing barriers, such as a past eviction and poor credit. After working closely with their Case Manager and YCAP’s Housing Specialist, they located a house that met their needs and their application was accepted through one of our landlord partnerships. They now pay 100% of their own rent and remain successful and stably housed.
