Finally Home: The Prophetic Witness of Off The Streets

Be someone’s hero today. We’ve all read the headlines. The homelessness crisis in America gets worse each day — but what if I showed you how to help someone transition from homelessness into permanent housing in a few steps? Would it seem impossible to you? Too big a lift? A problem for others to fix? Well, not only is it possible, it’s relatively easy and it’s happening in communities across the country right now with this simple model developed by Off The Streets. All it takes is a spark and a small group of committed individuals working together in your community. Since 2009, nine Off The Streets chapters have transitioned approximately 7,000 people, mostly women and children, into permanent housing with the payment of a security deposit and a couple truckloads of furniture. Off The Streets has done the work and learned the lessons, and we are eager to share our knowledge with you. All you need is an open heart and a few hours a month of your donated time. In exchange, we will provide your organization with a template for transitioning persons experiencing homelessness into permanent housing. Will you join us in becoming an important piece of solving the homelessness puzzle by spreading our message to communities across the country? Why not start a chapter today? Together we can make homelessness a thing of the past. Become the hero you were born to be.
