“Over the years, Springfield Supported Housing Program has been a trusted, reliable, and skilled lifeline for many of our residents who face financial challenges, coupling critically needed assistance with budget counseling to help residents become self-supporting. Our housing resource would be significantly diminished without SSH’s help.” - Local Landlord
“I went into the emergency shelter program. There I met you. You and Jenn got me into a better mindset as I was battling alcoholism and heart failure, I did not think I would be alive today. Now I'm in an apartment and celebrating 1 year sober and recovering from health problems. No one thought I could do it. You guys gave me all the tools and helped me build a sober healthy life.” - Previous Client
“Working with this program has always been a seamless process for me as a landlord and I would assume for the prospective tenants as well; as I have seen firsthand the time and attention paid to each case/client.” - Local Landlord
“It has been an honor doing business with SSHP throughout 2023. The SSHP staff has been incredible to work with, have provided many of our tenants with financial assistance, which has been large part of keeping our tenant population housed and successful. I appreciate you, and the SSHP staff for all you have done and continue to do for the Springfield Community.” - Local Landlord
“SSHP plays such a critical role to help our most vulnerable populations get connected to housing resources and stability. I have had the honor as a board member to watch them grow and evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of our community. It is not always easy work, but important work and their dedication is inspiring." - Board Member
“I’ve been working with SSHP for over three years. They have helped me in more ways than just trying to find housing. SSHP has been a huge support to me emotionally and I would not have gotten this far.” - Client
