Success Stories
Success Story: Amy and Her Boys
In 2017 I suffered health complications which led me and my two teenage
boys into homelessness. Although I’ve worked for the same employer for
the past twelve years, I was unable to meet many landlord’s rental criteria.
Success Story: Chris and Drea
In 2015, I was met with the lowest point of my life. My children were in foster care, I was on probation, and I did not have a stable living situation or the credit to support my current issues from being resolved.
The Challenge and the Solution
The Challenge:
- Vacancy rates at less then 1% in Santa Barbara County
- One of the most expensive cities to live in the state
- Minimal government housing
The Solution:
To build and maintain a network of private landlords with trust at the core of these relationships, resulting in a private sector that is accessed and activated to show compassion to the less fortunate.
