Welcome

Welcome to Families In Transition of Santa Cruz County. The goal of Families In Transition is to provide high quality supportive & housing services to struggling families throughout Santa Cruz County.

Families In Transition works closely with many community partners to ensure that families are able to access all appropriate resources and opportunities for success and stability. In addition to linkages with community programs and on-going case management services Families In Transition provides a variety of housing strategies to meet the individual needs of homeless and at-risk families with children throughout Santa Cruz County.

In most cases Families In Transition provides a short-term housing subsidy to families in scattered sites throughout the community. The goal is for the family to obtain necessary rental assistance and social services tailored to their individual circumstances while living in stable, private market housing that they will be able to maintain on their own at the completion of Families in Transition services.

Since 1992 Families In Transition has been preventing and ending homelessness for local families with children. Over one thousand families have received services that have enabled them to provide a home and greater stability for their children.
