Developmental Disabilities Management Assistance

Carolina Hill is a transitional shelter for homeless families. We provide services designed to break the cycle of repeated homelessness experienced by many families. We treat our residents with dignity and respect, without prejudice or judgement. Our caring and committed staff can accommodate families whose members may have special needs (e.g., developmentally disabled or handicapped). Our physical facility and its location are ideal for a shelter program with a fenced yard, recreation building and living spaces ideally suited for larger families who cannot find shelter elsewhere. The average length of stay for a family at Carolina Hill is three months, during which the parents receive mandatory counseling in order to examine the reasons for their homelessness and to avoid similar situations in the future. The program houses up to 17 families at a time.
