Our Goals
What: |
Provide Rochester residents with permanent, affordable, quality supportive housing combined with access to social and educational services in an architecturally attractive, energy - efficient building with on-site parking and with locally proven and expert property management. |

Who: |
Individual adult (workers, seniors, veterans, etc.) residents earning less than $26,940 / year, and adult formerly homeless individuals ready for independent living. |
On-site services: |
Case management, life skills development, goal planning, credit counseling, money management, and educational assistance along with other health, social and recreational activities. |
Where: |
Our continuing development focus is within the City Rochester, New York where access to public transportation, service providers and other related independent living amenities are readily and affordably available. |
When: |
Construction on our initial project is completed and operational (see Accomplishments). Planning for new development opportunities are under consideration. |
