Our Services
CORE provides rapid-response stabilization and diversion services designed to prevent individuals from entering unsheltered homelessness and to support those facing immediate housing instability. Our services focus on early intervention, coordination, and connection to safe alternatives before a crisis becomes chronic homelessness.
What We Offer
-
Because shelter beds and affordable housing are extremely limited in many communities, CORE emphasizes flexible stabilization strategies that do not depend solely on traditional housing availability.
Diversion and stabilization services may include:
Housing problem-solving and stabilization planning
Reconnection with family or trusted community supports
Coordination with hospitals, detox programs, and other institutions to prevent discharge-to-street
Referrals to shelters (including DV shelters), housing programs, or social services
Short-term housing assistance when available
The goal is to prevent individuals from entering unsheltered homelessness and support safe transitions following moments of crisis.
-
CORE serves as a bridge between individuals in crisis and the community's network of services. We collaborate with healthcare providers, outreach teams, shelters, and community organizations to ensure individuals are quickly connected to the right resources.
Support may include:
Referrals to mental health or substance use services
Connection to case management programs
Coordination with local service providers
Coordination with community resources to attain formal education for non-traditional students.
By strengthening coordination between organizations, CORE helps improve access to services and support long-term stability.
-
Extreme weather conditions create significant health risks for individuals experiencing unsheltered homelessness. CORE activates targeted outreach and stabilization efforts during dangerous fire events to help and protect vulnerable individuals.
Our weather and fire response efforts may include:
Outreach to individuals known to be unsheltered
Coordination of safe indoor placement options
Distribution of emergency/hygiene supplies
Connection to warming or cooling locations
Rapid secure placement including motel/hotel or shelter
These efforts focus on protecting life and reducing exposure-related harm during severe weather conditions or building fires.
