As funding is made available, Hope Partners provides other services to people on the verge of homelessness. When shelters are full, motel vouchers bring relief to homeless families. Typically, families are granted motel stays for three to five days. During this time, Hope Partners serves as an advocate for the family, finding additional help from other Hope Partners programs and outside resources.
Hope Partners provides utility and rent/mortgage assistance in an effort to prevent homelessness of low-income people who have received eviction or utility shut-off notices. Especially during the peak winter months, many people living in poverty do not have the money to cover the added cost of heating their homes.
