Tips for Applicants
HousingFirst is a direct service provider of social and affordable housing, not a grant-making foundation. Therefore, advice for applicants would pertain to individuals seeking housing, not organisations seeking grants. Those seeking housing should refer to their website for eligibility and application procedures for residents.
Giving Philosophy
HousingFirst operates on the firm belief that everyone has a fundamental right to affordable and safe housing, rather than a charitable impulse. Their approach prioritizes successfully housing people, creating a sense of place for residents, building community relationships for inclusion, and linking residents to local services and opportunities to improve personal well-being.
