YMCA Supportive Housing is a community solution to help eliminate
homelessness by providing Hope, Dignity, and Support in the form of
permanent supportive housing. It is part of the YMCA of Greater Des
Moines Association.
This Housing First Model helps people who are homeless (or who are at-
risk of homelessness) move into stable and secure permanent housing
supplemented by supportive services.
Case management, transportation assistance, food/clothing/hygiene
pantries, rental assistance, and other services help people meet their basic
needs and reach their life goals. The campus provides a place to call
home for 140 men and women.
