Family Housing Partnership

  • Bethany House Services created the Family Housing Partnership (FHP) in 2000 in order to bring together five family shelters and a comprehensive network of collaborators.
  • FHP provides a coordinated, integrated approach for families experiencing homelessness to find emergency shelter in the short term and ultimately safe, affordable, permanent housing in the long-term.
  • Funds are available to help families re-establish housing as part of a well-developed case plan. FHP provides direct assistance for rent, security deposits, back rent, utilities and other essential items.
  • Members of the partnership include Bethany House Services, Interfaith Hospitality Network, YWCA’s Battered Women’s Shelter, and The Salvation Army.
  • The Central Access Point Line is the one phone line in Cincinnati for homeless clients to access available beds in family shelters. It also provides referrals to other homeless services in the county as needed. You can call the CAP line for emergency shelter at 513-381-SAFE (7233)
