Supportive Housing
Description
Cooperative living opportunities are provided through the New Dimensions Supportive Housing program and the Homestead Cooperative program. Additionally 6 houses are located in Davis and Woodland.
At each house residents have their own room, and do their own shopping and cooking. Weekly meetings, facilitated by a YCCC and a Yolo County Mental Health counselor, help residents to divide chores and provide mutual support. Staff also provide individual support to those who need help with shopping or preparation of meals, completing laundry or engaging in meaningful activities.
Residents pay one sum to YCCC monthly to cover rent, utilities, cable, and maintenance and repair of the house. YCCC provides maintenance to the property and appliances, and supplies furniture and major appliances.
Referral to New Dimensions is made through Yolo County Mental Health. Referrals to our supportive houses and Homestead may vary. Please contact James McLeod, Supportive Housing Program Director for more information.
