The mission of Skid Row Housing Trust is to provide permanent supportive housing – beautiful homes coupled with supportive services – so that people who have experienced homelessness, poverty, poor health, disabilities, mental illness and/or addiction can lead safe, stable lives in wellness.
In 2015 over 1,900 formerly homeless and low-income adults called Skid Row Housing Trust home. By successfully maintaining their housing, residents break their cycles of homelessness, reduce their rates of emergency room visits and recidivism, and are able to address their mental illnesses and addictions – outcomes that save lives and save public systems millions of dollars.
