A Place To Stay
Donation protected
THE STORY: In our annual fundraiser, the Ithaca Board of Realtors® is supporting a new transitional housing program for homeless women "A Place to Stay".
Catholic Charities
Opened in the spring of 2016, Catholic Charities' A Place to Stay is a transitional housing program for single homeless women. The guests stay in a beautiful four bedroom rental home located in downtown Ithaca. This program strives to go beyond simply providing short term shelter to our guests. Our goal is to support the women in reaching greater self-sufficiency. The women in the house work towards their own personal goals, including gaining and maintaining employment, rebuilding relationships with their families and gaining greater self-confidence.
“A Place to Stay” also places a strong emphasis on teaching our guests about rental stewardship and offers education on tenants’ rights and responsibilities. The over- arching goal of the program is for the residents to transition out of this program and into their own independent housing.
