Our Story
Our family [unofficially] started Health Through Housing as an initial support for our family member with three children who was purpertually housing insecure due to financial challenges, emotional struggles and societal paradigms. We pooled our resources and purchased a moble home only to have our family member continue to experience hurdle after hurdle with inconsistent government programs, being buried in forms and, yes, personal challenges to overcome – but at least we were able to keep them housed so we could ensure they could be reached with resources, services, and food for them.
As a family we realized, while we were doing what we could, we needed to find a way to do better and create a more formalized strategy…Then, the Pandemic arrive, and we saw so many of our neighbors and friends being especially impacted with food insecurity, pandemic related health issues being ecsaserbated and unable to reach resources – the commonality of this for many of our community members?
