Housing Assistance
GLCAP can help area homeless residents find stable housing. We can help you find a safe place to live, cover rent, access supportive services, develop a plan for self-sufficiency and meet other needs. We also offer special programs to meet the specific needs of youth as well as homeless veterans and their families.
