The Housing Service area is responsible for all facilities Welcome House owns and operates.  This includes the Emergency Shelter for women and children, the Gardens at Greenup Apartments, King's Crossing and maintenance and janitorial for all facilities.

The Welcome House Emergency Shelter provides housing for 35 women and children.  While at shelter the women and children are given three meals each day, hygiene items, linens and laundry facilities.  In addition, residents develop a plan for income and housing with their assigned case manager.  Most plans focus on finding clients affordable housing, employment, childcare and financial literacy services.  There is no maximum stay at the shelter as long as the women are continuing to work towards fulfilling their case plan.

Welcome House also operates 20 apartments with onsite supportive services for families on Greenup Street; known as the Gardens at Greenup.  While staying at the Gardens at Greenup families receive a rent subsidy and are either 1) enrolling in an educational program or 2) working to gain specialized employment skills to bring in more income for their family.

Our newest project, King's Crossing, opened in the summer of 2011.  The building is also on Greenup Street. It is home to eight individuals/families and also provides much needed space for Welcome House's Employment and Social Security Outreach Service teams.
