Nous travaillons avec les familles qui risquent de perdre leur logement afin de prévenir le sans-abrisme.

Le programme de prévention du sans-abrisme de la Communauté de l’espoir vise à stabiliser les familles qui risquent de devenir sans-abri grâce à des services spécialisés et à la mise en relation avec d’autres ressources communautaires.

Les clients vivent généralement de manière temporaire chez un ami ou un parent et ont souvent déménagé. Les clients se trouvent au bord du sans-abrisme et viennent chercher toute l’aide disponible pour rester dans un logement stable.
