DRUEDING CENTER DIRECTLY ADDRESSES THE MULTIFACETED ISSUES OF HOMELESSNESS, TRAUMA, AND POVERTY; BY PROVIDING TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AND COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO FAMILIES.

Program accomplishments

• DRUEDING CENTER'S THEORY OF CHANGE IS THAT FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS WILL BUILD SKILLS TO HEAL FROM TRAUMA, RESTORE HOPE, AND END THE CYCLE OF HOMELESSNESS THROUGH A TRAUMA INFORMED AND HOUSING FIRST APPROACH. TRAUMA-INFORMED SERVICES ARE AT THE HEART OF EVERYTHING WE DO AT DRUEDING CENTER PROMOTING HEALING, SAFETY, AND EMPOWERMENT. WE TAKE THE FAMILY'S LEAD AND COLLABORATE TO FIND THEIR BEST PATH TOWARD THE FUTURE. ALONG THE WAY, WE ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HOMELESSNESS, WHICH ARE OFTEN LARGER SYSTEMIC ISSUES SUCH AS LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING. WE REMOVE BARRIERS TO CLEAR THE WAY FOR INDEPENDENCE SO THAT CLIENTS CAN EXPERIENCE LASTING CHANGE AND SEE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL.OUR TRAUMA-INFORMED CULTURE GUIDES OUR HOUSING FIRST APPROACH. HOUSING FIRST MEANS THAT WE UNCONDITIONALLY ADDRESS THE CORE ISSUE OF PROVIDING SHELTER AND IMMEDIATELY DEVELOP A HOUSING PLAN WHEN A FAMILY FIRST ARRIVES AT DRUEDING CENTER. HOUSING FIRST, A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED, EVIDENCE-BASED BEST PRACTICE, IS PROVEN TO HELP FAMILIES MAINTAIN PERMANENT HOUSING AND ACHIEVE STABILITY AND WELL-BEING. ALL OF OUR SERVICES SUPPORT THIS ULTIMATE GOAL. IN JANUARY 2024, DRUEDING CENTER WAS INFORMED THAT HUD FUNDING FOR THE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM WAS ENDING AS OF 9/30/2024. DRUEDING CENTER'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS MADE THE DECISION TO OPERATE A SMALLER NUMBER OF TRANSITIONAL HOUSING UNITS WHILE PURSUING FUNDING TO RENOVATE THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING TO CONVERT THE PROGRAM FROM TRANSITIONAL HOUSING TO PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE HOUSING. STAFFING WAS REDUCED AND THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES SERVED AT ONE TIME WAS REDUCED FROM 30 TO 12. THE RESIDENTIAL SERVICES AND COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENTS WERE COMBINED INTO FAMILY SERVICES IN FY25.RESIDENTIAL SERVICES - PROVIDES 12 TRANSITIONAL HOUSING UNITS TO FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESS FOR 12 MONTHS WITH A POSSIBLE SIX-MONTH EXTENSION. THE FAMILY TEAM BRINGS TOGETHER THE RESIDENT, FAMILY ADVOCATE, LIFE GUIDE, AND HOUSING COUNSELOR TO COLLABORATIVELY DEVELOP A FAMILY-LED PLAN THAT REFLECTS THEIR NEEDS FOR THE FUTURE. HOUSING, ALONG WITH OUR TRAUMA-INFORMED COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT SERVICES, CAN BRING A RENEWED SENSE OF HOPE.STAFF PARTNER WITH OUR RESIDENT FAMILIES TO FIND SOLID GROUND, HELPING PARENTS GAIN THE SKILL AND CONFIDENCE THAT ARE THE FOUNDATION FOR THEIR FUTURE INDEPENDENCE AND SHOWING THEIR CHILDREN THAT SUCCESS IS POSSIBLE IN THEIR LIVES. HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BEGINS TO EMERGE AND GRADUALLY BECOMES REAL AND ATTAINABLE. MEETING THE NEEDS OF OUR FAMILIES - WHO HAVE SUFFERED TRAUMA AND STILL FACE DAUNTING ODDS ON THE PATH TO INDEPENDENCE - CALLS FOR COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES, AND THESE ARE: (1) INTENSIVE CASE MANAGEMENT, (2) HOUSING ASSISTANCE, (3) TRAUMA INFORMED SERVICES, (4) LIFE SKILLS, AND (5) GREEN LIGHT FOOD PANTRY.IN FY25, DRUEDING CENTER SERVED A TOTAL OF 20 FAMILIES IN TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AND 69% OF THE FAMILIES THAT LEFT THE PROGRAM MOVED INTO PERMANENT HOUSING. 54% OF THE FAMILIES IN THE RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM INCREASED THEIR SELF-SUFFICIENCY SCORES AND 33% OF THE RESIDENTS WERE WORKING, IN SCHOOL OR IN A PROGRAM.(1) INTENSIVE CASE MANAGEMENT - EVERY FAMILY HAS A "FAMILY ADVOCATE", WHO WORKS WITH THE FAMILY TO SET AND REACH GOALS AROUND HOUSING, EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT, HEALTH AND LIFE SKILLS THAT ARE SPECIFIC TO A FAMILY'S CHALLENGES, STRENGTHS, NEEDS, CONCERNS, AND OUTSIDE SUPPORT, AND FOLLOWS A REALISTIC TIMELINE. IN FY25, FAMILY ADVOCATES HELD 725 OFFICE VISITS AND AN ADDITIONAL 793 OTHER CONTACTS WITH FAMILIES. (2) HOUSING ASSISTANCE - THE HOUSING COUNSELOR WORKS WITH THE FAMILY TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING PLAN.

FROM RUNNING AN INITIAL CREDIT REPORT AND HELPING EACH MOTHER CLEAN UP PAST PROBLEMS, TO EVENTUALLY PLACING FAMILIES IN SAFE, AFFORDABLE, CONVENIENT HOUSING, DRUEDING CENTER CALLS ON OUR VAST ARRAY OF PARTNERSHIPS AND NETWORKS TO OPEN DOORS. WE ASSIST RESIDENTS WITH ALL THE NECESSARY PAPERWORK AND APPLICATION FORMS. WE HAVE DEVELOPED SPECIALIZED RESOURCES, SUCH AS A HOUSING BULLETIN BOARD AND A HOUSING RESOURCE BOOK, WHICH FEATURES THE LATEST LISTINGS AND RESOURCES TO SUPPORT HOME OWNERSHIP.
