For Advocates/Service Partners
Metro Housing|Boston is proud of its “People First, Housing Always” approach. Our Housing Supports programs provide innovative and personalized solutions to ensure that individuals and families who are homeless or most at risk of homelessness can find and sustain housing.
The Specialized Voucher programs administered by Metro Housing|Boston are opportunities for families to link subsidized long term stable housing with supportive services.
We offer a continuum of services from information and referral to in-depth individualized assessment, comprehensive case management and advocacy, intensive housing search, foreclosure prevention and tenancy preservation, and fair housing resources. Our holistic, creative, non-formulaic approach preserves tenancies, properties and communities.
If you are a mental health provider, case worker, nurse or other social service provider, Metro Housing|Boston can help find the right solutions for your clients.
