Since its inception, C-U at Home has provided a supportive environment for individuals coming out of substance abuse recovery programs, incarceration, or crisis through a transitional housing program. We operate a two bed men's recovery residence called “Alchemy House” (right, a partnership with Electrum Group property management).
Three other houses we operate are used to provide housing for men and women in transition from rehab or moving out of our overnight shelters into an "advanced shelter" arrangement. Residents are provided with weekly case management, mentoring, and spiritual advisement, with the goal of working toward a stable, productive, and independent life.
We also operate a single-resident "Tiny House" in cooperation with Restoration Urban Ministries, the City of Champaign, and First Mennonite Church that allowed an individual in dire need an opportunity to get off the streets.
FAQ
How do I apply for C-U at Home's transitional housing?
Is there a cost?
In an effort to stay true to our empowerment model, we ask that all residents pay a small program fee while living in the C-U at Home houses. This fee is on a sliding scale depending on how many hours the individual works in a given week. If the resident is not working, no program fees are required but searching for employment is a requirement.
