The goal of Project PLASE’s transitional housing program is to house and serve homeless citizens who have special needs in temporary housing with 24 hour supported supervision and case management with a focus on helping the individual function at the highest level.

Project PLASE currently operates as a sponsor for 113 Shelter Plus Care (S+C) units. S+C is a federally funded HUD program for those who are formally homeless and living with a disability (mental health, substance abuse, and/or physical disabilities). Unlike other rental subsidies, S+C is a marriage of case management and rental subsidy where as a condition of one the client must participate in the other. This combination creates a system in which the client is able to be independent, yet remain supported. Additionally, because S+C has a term of up to five years, the client is assisted in making preparations for a more permanent living situation (Section 8, HOPWA, unsubsidized housing, etc.). These five years allow a client to progress from the dependency of shelter life into the complete independence of community life. PLASE has seen many successes in this program, from the reunification of families to the continuing education of our clients.
