Rapid Rehousing
Rapid rehousing (RRH) is an intervention designed to help individuals and families quickly exit homelessness by obtaining permanent housing and remaining there. RRH programs focus on getting people quickly into housing and then addressing barriers once they are in their unit. RRH funds can be flexible, offering short- and medium-term rental subsidies, security and utility deposits, and supportive services to move people quickly into housing.
TAC is a national leader in guiding communities to integrate rapid rehousing into their homeless crisis response systems by making RRH a system-wide primary intervention, strengthening program design, creating evaluation mechanisms, and training staff.
