How Does it Work?
TSF provides housing to homeless families and eventually to chronically homeless individuals. We are a new organization so there is a bit of faking it until we make it, but this is how the process looks.
TSF works with a family who is referred by Interfaith Hospitality Network or the Athens Area Homeless Shelter. We commit to three months rent, security deposit, and renter’s insurance. The family is partnered with a care group from a sponsoring church along with the referral agency. We come together to identify what hurdles exist and we make a plan of action. We surround the family with love and support. We provide a human connection of care and concern.
Its not a handout. Its a plan for self-sufficiency with clients and concerned citizens working together.
