Displaced Homemakers Program - Job Readiness Training
Empower your transition with our Displaced Homemakers / Job Readiness Program. Tailored for individuals who have lost their primary source of income due to unforeseen circumstances. We provide training, assistance, and emotional support to help clients regain independence. Our Displaced Homemakers Program recognizes the unique challenges faced by these individuals and offers a lifeline. We help participants gain the skills and confidence needed to enter or re-enter the workforce and achieve financial independence.
Rapid Rehousing
Homelessness can strike anyone, and our Rapid Rehousing Program is designed to respond quickly when it does. The first step is to contact the Department of Social Services (DSS) and then the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless (LICH). In times of crisis, our Rapid Re-Housing Program helps find permanent housing for those in need. Coupled with supportive services, we help individuals and families not just find a place to live, but also address the underlying issues that led to their homelessness. We aim to ensure a rapid return to stable housing, preventing long-term homelessness and its associated challenges.
Re-Entry Transitional Program
Transitioning back into society presents numerous challenges, and our Re-Entry Program is here to make that transition as seamless as possible. Our Re-Entry Program offers a comprehensive support system for individuals transitioning back into society.
Community Credible Messengers Initiative (CCMI)
As they return to the community on a conditional release, teenagers under the supervision of the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) are partnered with the Community Credible Messengers Initiative (CCMI).
By carefully and cooperatively creating a network of Parent Partners and Credible Messengers who live in the same neighborhoods, FSW collaborates with grassroots community groups to enhance the safety and wellbeing of children and their families.
