Regionally-based Family Solutions Centers (FSC) are families’ first point of entry to the Homeless Family Solutions System’s (HFSS). FSCs conduct an initial assessment to determine the most appropriate housing intervention for a family. Families are then connected to services and housing options that help them stay in their local community near friends, family, and other support networks.
FSCs serve families who are literally homeless or imminently at risk of homelessness as defined by HUD. Households without minor children, where the mother is in her last trimester of pregnancy, and a mother diagnosed with a “high risk” pregnancy, are also eligible.
