Everyone Needs a
place to call home

There is a need for individuals to have a safe place to sleep at night in order to feel secure and encouraged in every other aspect of life. Stable housing provides improved outcomes surrounding employment, health, education, and more.

At F5 Project, we provide transitional housing solutions for individuals who are in varying points in their lives. The houses at F5 Project are meant to be your home, like any other house, but complete with supportive roommates and involvement in the F5 Program.

The transitional living homes of F5 Project support all pathways to recovery, such as but not limited too: 12 Step, Faith-based, Smart Recovery, Refugee Recovery, Medicated Assisted Treatment, Peer Recovery Support - you name it! F5 Project cheerleads for our participants while we assist them in identifying what pathway works for them, and supporting them along the way.

CONNECT

We meet individuals where they’re at: prisons, jails, recovery centers, etc. and help educate them on the resources they’ll need once they leave that facility

Step2-Graphic

ENGAGE

When an individual is in need of housing, they can come to us. If the F5 Housing Program isn’t a good fit, we’ll work alongside individuals to get them connected to other housing options that fits their income, background, and credit requirements.

THRIVE

As participants move through the F5 Housing Program, life begins to feel more normal. Individuals are encouraged to continue to build supportive relationships and healthy habits. Once an individual graduates from the F5 Housing Program, we work alongside them to find stable, long-term housing as they continue their journey and create the life they want to lead.
