Transitional Housing
.
Background - Mission Statement

To provide the facilities, program and respect to individuals and families that will nurture and support the transition from homelessness to self-sufficiency.   The unique 2-year program is envisioned as a bridge from homelessness to employment and/or independent living.

EEE acquired 19.6 acres of undeveloped land through the McKinney Act in 1990 on a long-term lease. Construction began in the summer of 1992 and the first 4 residents were housed in March 1993.Since then EEE has continued to grow and currently serves 22 individual homeless and 2 families. During the coming fiscal year it is anticipated the on-site population will more than double with the addition of a 3 building complex to handle disabled homeless veterans, along with 3 additional duplexes to serve six more homeless families. If all goes as anticipated by year’s end there would be 12 buildings on site to house residents. Above is the communal garden which the residents have started.
