Housing Programs

The Road Home believes housing is the solution to homelessness.

Our programs help families and individuals move into housing and focus on short-term solutions that lead to long-term stability.

To access our programs, individuals and families must be currently homeless and receiving services through a local shelter.

Guests staying at our facilities have access to general housing support and specialized housing navigation services. These services are designed to help individuals and families find safe, affordable homes in the community.

    We help guests gather and review their housing history to support applications and eligibility.

  • Personalized Housing Search

    We work with each household to understand what kind of housing they’re looking for and what will best meet their needs.

  • Barrier Identification & Support

    Our team helps identify challenges to securing housing—such as credit, rental history, or income—and works with guests to overcome them.

  • Program Navigation

    We guide guests through available rental assistance and affordable housing programs.

  • Application Support

    We assist with eligibility documentation, rental applications, and landlord interviews.

  • Move-In Essentials

    We help provide basic household items like beds, kitchen supplies, and food to support a successful transition into housing.

Our Housing Navigation team is available on-site at each resource center at the Housing Resource Desk.

HOUSING ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

The Road Home helps individuals and families across Salt Lake County find safe, stable housing. We partner with landlords and property managers and offer ongoing support to help people succeed in their homes. Depending on each household’s needs, we provide different types of rental assistance and services:

Rapid Rehousing helps people who are currently homeless move quickly into housing. We offer short-term rental assistance and support with basic household needs. Services may include:

  • Help finding a home

  • Case management

  • Connections to childcare, employment, food programs, and public benefits

We work closely with households to help them move in—and stay housed.

Supportive Housing is a long-term program for individuals who have experienced chronic homelessness and need ongoing support. In addition to housing, we offer services that improve health, stability, and quality of life. This approach is proven to reduce costs and improve outcomes for both individuals and communities.

Need Housing Assistance? To access our programs, individuals and families must be currently homeless and receiving services through a local shelter.

VETERANS SERVICES

The Road Home’s Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program helps Veterans who are experiencing homelessness—or at risk of becoming homeless—find and maintain stable housing. We work in partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and other community organizations to ensure every Veteran in Salt Lake County has access to safe housing and the support needed to thrive.

What We Offer

  • Outreach & Engagement

    We meet Veterans wherever they are—shelters, libraries, VA facilities, Valor House, or on the streets—to build trust and connect them to services.

  • Housing Navigation

    We help Veterans find housing through our network of housing partners and ongoing relationships with landlords.

  • Housing Stability Case Management

    Once housed, Veterans receive personalized support to increase income, access benefits, and work toward long-term stability.

SUPPORTIVE HOUSING COMMUNITIES

The Supportive Housing program provides affordable housing with onsite services to families and individuals who formerly experienced chronic homelessness to help them remain stable in their homes. Chronic homelessness is a term for people who have experienced homelessness for a year or more, or repeatedly, while struggling with a disabling condition. Available resources include local community centers, medical care, aging adult services, access to childcare, and more.

We provide Supportive Housing in apartment complexes across Salt Lake County, including Magnolia (65 units), Palmer Court (201 units) and Wendell Apartments (32 units).

PALMER COURT

Originally a Holiday Inn hotel, Palmer Court Apartments was renovated and transformed into 201 units of permanent supportive housing in 2009. Families and individuals with a former history of chronic homelessness have been able to call Palmer Court home for over 16 years. Onsite supportive services—including Early HeadStart and HeadStart, health and behavioral health supports, employment supports, and volunteer supported activities—ensure that tenants have the resources they need to remain stable in their homes.

WENDELL APARTMENTS

This apartment complex is 32 units of permanent supportive housing and has been operated by The Road Home since 2014. Onsite supportive services are provided for tenants with a history of chronic homelessness.

MAGNOLIA APARTMENTS

The Magnolia Apartments opened its doors to 65 people who had experienced long-term homelessness in August 2021. Tenants are provided a suite of comprehensive on-site services that include intensive case management supports, 24-7 property management staff, and security.

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PARTNERSHIPS

The Road Home partners with landlords and property managers to provide housing opportunities for individuals, families, and Veterans working to resolve their current housing crisis. These partnerships are essential to helping our community thrive—and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
