“These vouchers are affecting our families in positive ways.\u00a0 I had a mom in tears with me this week\u2026 tears of joy!”<\/em> \u2013 Katie DePrez, HSWH Children\u2019s Service Specialist<\/p>\n

In the fall of 2018, Solid Ground partnered with several local nonprofits and school districts to form the Homework Starts with Home Collaborative in suburban Ramsey County. The goal being to\u00a0prevent homelessness for families with children in grades Pre-K-12, and to move homeless families quickly out of shelter or other housing instability into stable housing.<\/p>\n

This summer,\u00a0\u00a020 families in the Homework Starts with Home program will receive Housing Choice Vouchers through a new partnership with the Metropolitan Housing & Redevelopment Authority (Metro HRA).\u00a0 The partnership will provide longer term rental assistance to families who are doing well in the program but have not been able to increase their income enough to afford full market rent. This is especially helpful\u00a0as the\u00a0COVID-19 pandemic has taken a toll on many participants\u00a0who have struggled even more than usual to pay rent or maintain\/increase their income due to job loss and health issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
