Who we are
Allegan Homeless Solutions (AHS) was created based on a simple philosophy: To end homelessness, we must house the homeless. Our solutions focus on how to keep someone from becoming homeless and how to help someone exit homelessness.
Bridging Gaps. Breaking Barriers. Bringing Solutions.
We recognize the gaps and barriers that keep individuals and families from having a home.
The solutions we bring are:
- Provide housing in one of our properties
- Provide hotel stays when health and weather are of concern
- Cover apartment application fees
- Assist with back rent/utilities when they become an obstacle to housing
- Provide gas cards (a critical need of the homeless)
- Provide campground stays (including blankets, tents, water, food, etc.)
- And most importantly, we offer love, respect, and kindness to those we serve.
100% driven by volunteers and service providers.
Our board is comprised of volunteers and professionals working within the sector. Combining their experience and passion for the Allegan Community, they drive the mission of Allegan Homeless Solutions.
