Spotlight Story
“A single dad with three children, one of which one is disabled, reached out to YCAP seeking housing resources. The client identified himself as a veteran. While working with the veteran case manager to establish a long-term housing plan, the family was placed in the Veteran’s room at Harvest House. The client was determined eligible for assistance through the SSVF Program. With the assistance from YCAP and the SSVF program the client secured a two bedroom apartment after staying in the shelter for two weeks. This client has some income but will continue to work with the Veteran Case Manager and Employment Developer to work towards self-sufficiency.”
