Rapid Rehousing

Rapid Rehousing

Rapid Rehousing moves young adults, ages 18-24, from homelessness to housing. Coordinators work with local landlords to supply rental housing to eligible young adults who participate in supportive counseling and skills development to become self-sufficient tenants.

The Rapid Rehousing Program helps young people ages 18 through 24 find housing when they are experiencing literal homelessness or housing instability. Local landlords provide rental housing for up to 24 months and Rapid Rehousing Coordinators mediate the relationship between the young people and their landlords.

Referrals for this program come strictly from Coordinated Entry(CE) of the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)of NH and serve the most vulnerable young adults. Waypoint’s Youth Navigator or Regional Access Point connect youth to this coordinated entry assessment.

 

Eligibility

Young people ages 18 – 24 who are experiencing literal homelessness or housing instability.

Fee

None – if accepted; rent dependent on income

Region Served

Serving young people and landlords in Manchester, Strafford County, Rockingham County and Merrimack County
