AKA:

(1003) xxRRH

Description:

All CHAMP case management referrals must go through the Homeward Bound Office and will be assigned to the appropriate case manager. Primary Referral "Case/Care Management."

The Knoxville-Knox County Community Action Committee!€™s Homeward Bound Programs are specifically designed to provide services to homeless persons.

Homeward Bound Programs promote self-sufficiency by offering case management to enable job training, employment and stable housing, family reintegration, life skills training (employability, budget management, parenting, and anger management), outpatient alcohol and drug treatment, and assertive outreach to people living on the streets.

Elizabeth's Home is a HUD funded re-housing program that assists families in transition from homelessness to permanent supportive housing in apartments and single-family homes scattered throughout the Knoxville area. Through tenant-based lease agreements supported by the program, and long-term case management, the families are able to live independently and develop skills to maintain housing. The length of stay for families is up to 24 months, with CAC providing rental assistance to the families (who pay 30% of their income) up to a two-year period. The goal of the program is to facilitate the movement of the families to long term permanent housing.
