What We Do
Originally established as the Traveler’s Aid Society in 1923, The Road Home changed its name in 2001 to better reflect our mission of helping people step out of homelessness and back into our community. The Road Home is a private, non-profit social service agency that assists individuals and families with children experiencing homelessness in Salt Lake County and along the Wasatch Front. The agency has been providing emergency shelter services since 1988 and housing services since 1995. The Road Home began operating under a Housing First model in 2005 and became the central Rapid Re-housing provider in Salt Lake County in 2009.
We currently offer emergency shelter services in Salt Lake County with no eligibility criteria for clients to access services including; nightly beds, showers, access to laundry facilities, clothing, blankets, diapers, personal toiletries, etc. Case managers can assist clients in connecting with public benefits, substance abuse treatment, mental health assessment and treatment, job training and development, childcare services, housing assistance and more.
Our Salt Lake Community Shelter and Resource Center and Midvale Family Resource Center shelters can be accessed 24 hours/day, 365 days/year. Priority populations like families with children, Veterans and those experiencing chronic homelessness are assigned case managers to facilitate transitioning out of shelter and into housing as quickly as possible. Case managers work with clients to develop a basic needs assessment and a short-term case plan. Once in housing, case managers continue working with clients to help them build the skills necessary to maintain stable housing, increase income, and ensure access to mainstream benefits. This includes conducting in-home visits to ensure participants are meeting the terms of their lease, providing referrals to community resources, and helping to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented households from finding and/or maintaining housing.
