Housing support program

We provide in-person assistance to individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or struggling to find safe and stable housing. We connect people with local eviction and rental assistance resources and assist with housing applications and applications for other services, jobs, and other financial benefits.

Housing navigation

We help with housing search and assistance in filling out housing applications. We work with clients to identify housing barriers and provide guidance to overcome those barriers. We also provide information and referral to community resources to address concerns related to housing.

rent & Application Assistance

We provide help for people navigating application processes and filling out forms required for housing, immigration, food, health, and other community support services. While we cannot provide legal assistance or advice, we are dedicated to assisting with application processes. Making appointments is preferred, but we always cater to walk-in clients.

Are you a new African immigrant or refugee family living in Madison or Dane County? Are you struggling to pay next month’s rent or find housing? You may be eligible for assistance. Visit this page
