Transforming Lives Through Housing Solutions

Everyone deserves a safe place to call home. We help youth, individuals, and families throughout the Greater Richmond and Tri-Cities regions find housing, access resources, and take the next steps toward long-term stability.

“The staff at St. Joseph’s Villa went above and beyond to give me resources to help me get back on my feet. They placed me in a motel and made sure I was ok by coming by and making sure I had food to eat. They helped me get clothes for job interviews. I can’t imagine what would have happened to me if they hadn’t reached out their hand to help.”

Rapid Re-Housing Services

Flagler Housing and Homeless Services provides community-based rapid re-housing assistance to help households secure affordable rental housing as quickly as possible and the tools needed to maintain independence.

Services are customized to meet the unique needs of the household and include:

  • Individualized case management
  • Short-term financial assistance
  • Budgeting and tenant education
  • Community resource networking and partnership opportunities

Our primary goal is to resolve the immediate housing crisis. Once housing is obtained, case managers partner with households to effectively address other challenges and goals.
