Need & Purpose of the Housing Now Program

• Housing Now fills a significant gap in affordable housing.  

• Many homeless people have some income, but still need help to secure and keep housing.

• CHAT locates affordable rental properties.

• We develop and maintain relationships with sympathetic property owners.

• We sign the lease, so the property owner is protected.

• We make bedrooms available to residents at cost.

• We provide supportive services to enable people to succeed. 

• We presently operate 24 homes in the Chico community, housing

       a total of 85 people.
