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.
