Our homeless services program offers a team-based approach to increase access and services to persons experiencing serious behavioral disorders, substance use disorders, and homelessness or at risk of being homeless. This project is an expansion of a collaboration between Gulf Coast Partnership and Charlotte Behavioral Health Care to ensure persons experiencing homelessness can access housing and recovery services.

Without connections to the right types of care, those experiencing chronic homelessness will continue to cycle in and out of hospital emergency rooms, inpatient beds, detox programs, crisis units, and jail/prison – all with high public and personal expenses.

We can help:

• Facilitate access to treatment for substance use, recovery, and mental health services.
• Access all possible benefits – SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR).
• Assist with preparing for and retaining housing.
• Provide recovery support focused based on needs.
• Navigate community resources needed for successful housing placement.

This program focuses on chronically homeless (or at risk of homelessness) Charlotte County adults and youth who have mental health concerns and suffer from co-occurring substance use.
