PLUS
Positive Living & Understanding Self-Sufficiency
The PLUS Program for homeless, chemically dependent women assists participants with transitional housing, essential supportive services, life skills training, workforce development, and addiction recovery services leading to self-sufficiency, family reunification, and permanent housing. Program participants must be very low to low income and homeless at the time of intake. The PLUS program, which includes personalized intensive case management, serves as a conduit whereby women suffering with addiction issues can receive the necessary support, basic needs, and life skills training to overcome past failures and obstacles which can include, but are not be limited to, family dysfunction, children in foster care, unemployment, lack of education, and receipt of medical and dental services while enrolled in our program.
There are admission criteria that one must meet in order to participate in the programs and services we offer.

Promising Partnerships
Permanent Supportive Housing
Through the Promising Partnerships program, Genesis Outreach, Inc. provides permanent supportive housing for chronically homeless families and individuals whom, except for housing, would not receive supportive services, and except for support services, would not remain housed. Program participants become self-sufficient while gaining stability, economic empowerment, and enhanced community development and neighborhood impact. Success is measured by increasing income and maintaining housing for 12 months without experiencing future episodes of homelessness.
If you are in some type of homeless situation and have low- to no income, please download and complete our housing application.
This housing program is for both single adults and families. Along with a completed application, please submit all the applicable paperwork and documentation that is listed on the last page of the application.
Other Services
We help those we serve through individual case management based in problem identification, goal setting, and achievement of goals. No two people are identical; our staff caters to individuals’ specific needs.
Due to the instability generally associated with persons and families who are homeless, program participants often need to relearn basic life skills, such as cooking, cleaning, financial management, hygiene, and personal responsibility.
It is not necessarily the amount of money that determines one’s financial stability, rather, it is responsible management of the resources available. We offer classes and material to help our clients learn to budget and spend their money appropriately according to their circumstance.
We are strong supporters of family and strive to do all we can to foster loving and meaningful relationships between the individuals we serve and their family members. We also walk with people through any court related circumstances that revolve around a person and his or her family.
