Rental Counseling

Rental Counseling to Prevent Homelessness provides the tools and compassion to save families who are at-risk of becoming homeless. Through individual counseling, education and goal setting, at-risk families can find alternative housing or work out an agreement with their landlord. More important than this are the skills and disciplines they learn to avoid these circumstances in the future. Rental counseling isn't meant to be a quick fix, rather our caring counselors help at-risk families by restoring their hope, treating them with dignity and respect and encouraging them to set goals to improve their lives. Each year our counselors help over 80 families avoid the claws of homelessness.

Shelter to Independent Living helps homeless families find housing and become self-sufficient through counseling, education, and goal setting. Our counselors provide the tools and compassion to help move homeless families from homelessness back into the community. But more importantly, our counselors provide hope for each of our families, and a new "lease" on life.

The victims of homelessness are often single-parent mothers and children. Solving the problems of families who are homeless is no easy battle. It requires innovative and caring people. Shelter to Independent Living provides that mix. Finding oneself homeless can create a cycle of helplessness for families with no hope for the future. Tabor counselors are there to restore that hope and help homeless families build their lives, ending the cycle of homelessness for themselves and their children. Each year our counselors help over 200 homeless families make difficult life-changing steps on their journey to self-sufficiency.
