Program areas at Mercy Communities

Transitional housing provides families with dignified housing and teaches them the life skills necessary to become self sufficient. We provide intensive and holistic services and collaborate with community resources, with the ultimate goal of securing permanent housing when the families are ready, and providing them with ongoing aftercare services.
Permanent housing provides families with disabilities access to affordable housing and supportive services. This program allows families that may not otherwise be capable, to keep their families together and live independently.
