A complete pathway, not just a shelter
Microshelters are the bridge — providing privacy, safety, and stability while residents work toward permanent housing. The model connects seven stages into one accountable path from crisis to a home.
Prevent → Shelter → Stabilize → Navigate → Remove Barriers → House → Support
Prevent
Stop homelessness before it starts
Rental assistance, eviction diversion, landlord mediation, and early intervention keep people housed before crisis hits.
Shelter
A safe, private place tonight
Rapid-deploy modular microshelters provide privacy, safety, and dignity — not a cot in a crowded room.
Stabilize
Health, rest, and grounding
Residents stabilize physically and mentally with climate control, secure storage, meals, and access to healthcare.
Navigate
A housing plan with a navigator
Each resident works with a housing navigator to build a personalized plan toward permanent housing.
Remove Barriers
Clear the path to housing
Case managers resolve ID, credit, legal, employment, and behavioral-health barriers blocking housing placement.
Permanent Housing
Move into a home
Rapid rehousing, vouchers, affordable units, and supportive housing move residents into permanent homes.
Support
Stay housed for good
Ongoing case management, landlord partnerships, and retention support prevent a return to homelessness.
The 90-Day Housing Framework
A structured, time-bound framework that keeps residents, navigators, and case managers focused on a clear path to permanent housing.
The 90-day framework is an accountability tool, not an automatic eviction deadline.
Intake, health screening, rest, and immediate needs. Establish trust and a navigator relationship.
Resolve ID, documents, legal, employment, and behavioral-health barriers blocking housing.
Navigator activates housing search: rapid rehousing, vouchers, affordable units, landlord outreach.
Escalate any unresolved barriers to specialized teams so no one stalls without a path forward.
Microshelters are not the final solution
They provide privacy, safety, and stability while residents work toward permanent housing. The goal is always a home — not a shelter.
Privacy & Safety
A lockable, private unit — not a cot in a crowded room.
Stability
Climate control, secure storage, and a fixed address to build from.
A Path Home
Every unit connects to a navigator and a housing plan.
Final capacity and development feasibility require professional architecture, engineering, zoning, fire-code, building-code, and accessibility review.
