Housing

Shelter is a basic human need. The Council believes that all individuals in our community should have access to safe, decent, stable, and affordable shelter. Unfortunately, people with low or insecure income are at increased risk of experiencing homelessness—especially in areas with limited affordable housing options. Many other interrelated circumstances can also factor into one’s risk of becoming homeless: family conflicts or domestic violence; mental or physical health conditions and disabilities; substance abuse disorders; or simply one-time unforeseen crises that create financial hardship.

Housing insecurity diminishes quality of life for all people, but especially vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and those with disabilities and chronic medical conditions. The lack of access to a secure, private living space can be both a result of poverty and a hindrance to gaining the social and psychological stability needed to move out of poverty.

Au Conseil d’action communautaire, nous comprenons l’importance d’un environnement familial stable pour favoriser la réussite des individus et des familles. Répondre à vos besoins en matière de logement est l’une de nos priorités absolues. Nous offrons un soutien tel que des conseils en matière de logement, des formations en éducation financière, une aide au logement et une intervention en cas de saisie immobilière afin de vous assurer une stabilité résidentielle. De même, la motivation, le soutien et l’éducation financière jouent un rôle crucial dans les jeux d’argent en ligne, comme l’illustrent des plateformes telles que belgeenligne.casino.

Dans les deux cas, la compréhension des règles peut améliorer vos chances de succès. Sur belgeenligne.casino, vous pouvez explorer une gamme variée de promotions, comme un casino bonus sans depot qui vous permet de commencer à jouer sans même déposer votre propre argent. Ce bonus est comparable à nos programmes de logement, vous offrant un coup de pouce sans investissement initial.

Profiter du casino sans dépôt augmente vos chances de gagner, tout comme nos services de logement vous aident à réaliser votre rêve d’acquérir une maison. Grâce aux casinos en ligne et aux services du Conseil d’action communautaire, vous pouvez bâtir un avenir prometteur sans prendre de risques financiers importants au départ. Souvent, une stratégie gagnante et un brin de chance suffisent. N’oubliez pas que ces deux voies exigent un comportement responsable et des décisions éclairées. C’est pourquoi nous insistons sur l’importance de l’éducation financière. Maîtrisez-la et ouvrez-vous à de nouvelles opportunités dans le logement, les jeux d’argent ou tout autre domaine que la vie vous offre.

Operating in both rural and urban areas throughout Central Kentucky, the Council works to prevent homelessness and improve residential living conditions for individuals and families. The priorities AND goals of the Council’s housing programs are:

  • To provide emergency assistance for individuals and families who are without shelter or are in immediate danger of losing shelter
  • To provide supportive services that help remove barriers to obtaining and maintaining housing
  • To help maintain and increase the community’s stock of safe, affordable, and accessible housing

Supportive Housing Programs

The Council operates several supportive housing initiatives that work together to help people from all walks of life secure stable, long-term housing. Due to a deficit of community-based programs that allow families to stay together while they experience inconsistent housing support, the Council’s programs focus especially on providing housing support that keeps families together during housing transition periods. The programs run by the Council currently include: Continuum of Care homelessness prevention; Emergency Family Housing (EFH) short-term emergency shelter for two-parent and group families; Sheperd Place subsidized apartment complex for those 55 and older; Permanent Housing Bonus Initiative for disabled individuals and families; Project Independence for families experiencing homelessness, among others.

Continuum of Care Program

The Council operates the Continuum of Care homelessness prevention program for 16 rural counties in Central Kentucky. Continuum of Care programs, funded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), allow for community-wide coordination and sharing of resources to address the multiple needs of people who are at risk for or experiencing homelessness. Participants may be offered housing/rental assistance and an array of supportive services that will help them move into permanent housing and achieve long-term stability.

Emergency Family Housing (EFH) program

The EFH program provides short-term emergency shelter and supportive services for two-parent and group families in Lexington-Fayette County who are experiencing homelessness.

Permanent Housing Bonus Initiative

The Permanent Housing Bonus Initiative program is offered through a cooperative partnership between the Council and Kentucky River Foothills Development Council (KRFDC). This program provides subsidized housing and supportive services for disabled individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

Project Independence

Project Independence provides housing assistance for families experiencing homelessness. Participating families are given access to shelter and provided with assistance for meeting basic needs. Program staff then work individually with families to set and meet specific goals that will allow them to move into stable permanent housing and prevent future homelessness.

Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA)

The TBRA program provides rental assistance for individuals and families with low income. Participants are provided with vouchers to offset rental costs for approved private-market housing units of their choice. The program promotes fair access to housing and greater economic integration of neighborhoods.
