Transitional housing and homeless shelters Nassau and Suffolk County.

Low income transitional housing programs and homeless shelters operate across Nassau and Suffolk County on Long Island. Families that were recently evicted or that are homeless can use the emergency housing for a place to stay, often the same night. The temporary housing is run by non-profits, charities, or in some cases, government agencies. Find emergency shelters or transitional housing programs near you on Long Island.

Not only will a client be able to find a place to stay, but they can also access case management and related services to help them find a new home or apartment to live in. This is called permanent housing assistance, and the transitional housing programs will help people with an addiction, immigrants or the unhoused find a home. Clients will also be provided information on financial assistance programs in Long Island that can help them pay for a security deposit or first months rent, and look here for more details on charities near you that help with rent.

While each program has limited resources and some of the transitional housing programs as well as shelters focus on veterans, single parents, or families, the bottom line is that are many options to choose from. Other resources are focused on immigrants and newcomers to the Long Island New York area. Even if an organization in Nassau or nearby Suffolk County can't meet your needs, they will more than likely have referrals for you.
