Heading Home Programs
By Heading Home
We provide shelter, transitional & permanent housing + support services to extremely low-income homeless/formerly homeless adult individuals & families with children in Cambridge & Greater Boston.
This is an ongoing program.
Heading Home’s adult individual client referrals come from a Coordinated Entry system for a particular “Continuum of Care.” All applications for any Heading Home program in the Cambridge area come from the Cambridge Coordinated Access Network (C-CAN) in the Cambridge Continuum of Care.
Application required
- Sign-up is ongoing
If you or someone you know are in need of Heading Home services, we recommend completing the Cambridge Coordinated Access Network application. These applications will place you on waitlists for several organizations. Based on vulnerability, you will be referred to the first agency with an opening at a program for which you meet the requirements. There is a possibility that you may not be placed with Heading Home but may have the opportunity to be housed with many more organizations that may be able to help.
