Our Services
Housing Stabilization
Services (H.S.S.)
These services are split into two parts to help residents of Minnesota, struggling with housing instability, to find and maintain stable housing.
The Transition services are used to help a person plan for, locate, and move into stable housing.
The Sustain portion aims to support the individual long-term in order to maintain their housing once they have it.
Housing Transition Services
- Transition evaluates the client's housing wants and needs and finds the available options.
- We help navigate the tedious application process from start to finish.
- We will also help facilitate the move.
- Our staff can assist with resolving any housing barriers that might exist for the client.
- We support self identified goals to promote independent living and greater stability.
- Our staff is focused on client community engagement and relationship building skills.
Housing Sustain Services
- Sustain is intended to help individuals with the skills and tasks needed to maintain housing once they have secured a stable place to live.
- Sustain is a great service to assist low income clients/seniors with simple supports to help keep them in their own homes.
- This service offers 150 hours of support a year to help with weekly routine tasks such as grocery shopping, light housework, and running errands or for navigating community supports like visiting the local food shelves or laundromats, etc.
- We are committed to weekly check-ins with the client to provide reminders and resources in order to support long-term housing stability.
- This service can be a life changer for those who live independently. By helping them maintain their self-sufficiency, it allows them to be able to continue to lead active, healthy lives...
Let Us Help You Sign Up!
STEP 1. Fill out a Self Referral Form
(-or- complete the Do I Qualify? page.)
STEP 2. Get a PSN (HERE) and bring it to a Qualified Professional to get it completed.
- The PSN (Professional Statement of Need) is a document (that needs to be completed by a Qualified Professional) which outlines the services that are needed.
- A Qualified professional is: a doctor, nurse practitioner, mental health professional, chiropractor, physician's assistant, etc.
STEP 3. Get help making a
Housing-Focused Person-Centered Plan
- If you have a Targeted Case Manager, an MA-Waiver Case Manager, or a Senior Care Coordinator, that person will help you update your plan to include Housing Stabilization Services.
- If you don’t have any of those people helping you, you can also get help making your Housing-Focused Person-Centered Plan from a Registered Housing Consultant.
*Either way: no matter who helps you with your Person-Centered Plan, you personally still get to decide which provider will help you with your housing transition and housing sustain services.*
STEP 4. Wait to get Approved…
- Once Steps 1-3 are completed, your documents are then sent to the State of Minnesota (DHS) Department of Human Services for approval.
