STAGE 2 TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM
The YWCA’s Stage 2 Transitional Housing Program is designed to provide safe, affordable, transitional housing for up to 3 yrs within Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland and Fort Erie and West Niagara. The program is designed for men, women and single individuals with their children. The program is individualized to meet the specific needs of each participant. While engaged within the program each individual will work with a Transitional Support Worker on self-identified goals to ensure that the resident is able to leave the program into successful independent housing. This is done by meeting with the participants monthly to go over short and long term goals.
