About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Massachusetts Housing and Shelter Alliance (MHSA) is to end homelessness in Massachusetts through permanent housing combined with outcome-based service programs. MHSA is dedicated to innovative solutions that reduce public reliance on costly and ineffective emergency resources, and that bring our poorest and most disabled neighbors home for good.
About
Emergency shelter and transitional programs during fiscal year 2019, the program provided, in partnership with community-based service organizations and landlords, 284 shelter and transitional housing beds each night. The programs provide clients with safe living accommodations, meals, transportation, case management, income-related referrals and public benefits access, referral services, housing search and other services focused primarily on helping individuals to access permanent housing. The program has some components that focus on specific subpopulations of homeless individuals, such as veterans, chronically homeless adults, women and individuals with varying degrees of disabilities. The program includes a state-historic shelter contract, a safe haven grant that serves veterans and a grant from the Commonwealth's attorney general office used for the social determinant health program.
