Description
Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon (EMO) Metro HomeShare helps Home Providers stabilize and retain their housing, while offering access to affordable rent or services to Home Seekers. EMO works with Home Providers to identify their needs, which may include financial burdens, loneliness, or inability to live alone and complete everyday tasks. They also work with Home Seekers who may be unable to qualify for traditional affordable housing options, facing homelessness, and cannot afford market-rate rents. They then facilitate the matching process until a homeshare agreement has been made. Additionally, they offer case management services to support both parties for up to two years once a match has been made.

Second Home provides housing for unaccompanied homeless youth while they attend high school. Second Home works together with the homeless liaisons of the Beaverton School District, the Beaverton Dispute Resolution Center of the Mayor's Office, and volunteer home-providers to find stable housing for young people who want to finish their high school education. EMO has recently expanded this program to serve students in Lincoln County and Gresham-Barlow School Districts, as well.
