A Place of Hope and Help
If you are experiencing homelessness and are living in the Cincinnati, OH. area, the following organization may be able to lend a helping hand:
Many individuals are often faced with the harsh reality of being homeless and find that they have no one and no where to turn to. This can affect these individuals in a very negative way, leaving them feeling worthless and low. The Drop Inn Center provides a refuge of unconditional care and compassionate assistance for both men and women to encourage and empower those without resources to move from homelessness and destitution to shelter and stability. The Center’s doors are open 24 hours a day and 365 days a year to anyone who is in need of their services. Listed below are brief descriptions of the services and programs in which The Drop Inn Center offers:
Emergency Shelter- The Drop Inn Center provides immediate shelter to the homeless with the goal of moving them into permanent housing. On average, the Center provides shelter to 250 men and women each and every day.
Advocacy- Once a homeless individual enters the Drop Inn Center, he or she meets with an Advocate. The Advocate interviews, evaluates and processes the person based upon the individual’s needs. Advocates then link residents to case management, support, services and referring agencies.
Homeless Individuals Partnership Program- This program utilizes a six-person Collaborative Case Planning Team. This team provides intensive services designed to help the individual access mainstream disability support services (mental health, substance abuse, etc.), and assists them in securing housing and income and/or benefits to sustain themselves.
Shelter Based Case Management- This project provides more one-on-one counseling to each homeless individual, aged 18 and over, and helps to ensure the success of each person's transition from homelessness back into housing.
Men's Recovery- This Program is a certified, six-month treatment program. It involves individual and group counseling, chemical dependency education, community service, job training, and employment and housing acquisition.
