River of Refuge is a Kansas City nonprofit that helps homeless families with employment move from high-rent motels, non-traditional housing, and shelters toward permanent housing. Its Transitional Housing Program, opened in 2016, combines interim housing with practical support intended to help families build lasting stability.
The organization describes offering furnished apartment housing during a family’s stay, along with case management, budgeting and debt-reduction planning, parenting and life-skills education, recovery support, and mental health counseling. Household essentials and related assistance are also provided to help families direct more resources toward reducing debt and building savings.
River of Refuge is located at 5155 Raytown Rd #101 in Kansas City, Missouri. Learn more through the River of Refuge website.
