Serving Families in Need
For a family, a stable home is a foundation upon which to build a successful life. It is the freedom to study, to aspire, to stive, to dream, without uncertainty or fear. At Bratton Center, we believe every family should experience this kind of security.
More than 70% of Bratton Center Housing’s residents are families and when those families don’t have to worry about the safety and affordability of their home, they can focus on gaining new career skills, helping their children do well in school and becoming involved in their communities.
At Bratton Center, we support our residents in their efforts to build better lives. We believe that our families need more than housing to overcome barriers to success; they also request on-site services where they live. For youth, affordable program-enriched housing has been linked to better academic performance because of the stability it provides. With that in mind, Bratton Center Housing Resident Services provides comprehensive educational programs to youth in the after school hours and complements these programs with family-centered support services. The main goal is for families to maintain housing stability and move toward economic selfsufficiency as a family unit.
The greatest gift you can give a family is a safe, stable place where they can dream. Bratton Center empowers families to grow, learn and succeed and realize their place in the world.

Supportive Housing for Formerly Homeless Individuals and Families in Need
According to the National Coalition for the Homeless two trends are largely responsible for the rise in homelessness over the past 20-25 years: a growing shortage of affordable rental housing and a simultaneous increase in poverty. Persons living in poverty are most at risk of becoming homeless, and demographic groups who are more likely to experience poverty are also more likely to experience homelessness.
While the circumstances that lead to a person or family becoming homeless may vary, Bratton Center has created a supportive housing model that combines safe, stable housing with access to support services to help the formerly homeless population find stability. Supportive housing is essential to providing program-enriched housing for families, seniors and people with special needs. Bratton Center defines supportive housing as permanent, affordable housing that is enriched with supportive services benefiting people who have been homeless or who are at high risk for homelessness. Supportive housing offers permanent rental housing and supports for people at high risk for homelessness with an aim to end the cycle of homelessness and lift people out of poverty.
Services at Bratton Center, supportive housing properties are focused on the areas of housing stability, health, community building and employment.
