First Step Florence focuses on helping families in the Florence, Oregon area who are in need of safe, stable, transitional housing. We offer the only transitional housing program in the Florence region.
Our unique program helps participants to set and achieve goals appropriate for their family’s individual circumstances and includes housing assistance, job placement, budgeting guidance and a financial savings plan.
First Step resources and programs are designed to encourage successful living and to date has helped approximately 50 families and their children, to move beyond housing insecurity and unsafe living conditions.
First Step offers private housing units for individual families in a safe and secure location. Our location is mantained and fully monitored by First Step staff.
We are in the beginning stages of developing a permanent location for our program on our very own multi-acred site. This will include additional new housing units. Our long term goal is to add a community center and an early childhood center.
First Step Florence is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, EIN Number: 82-5073578, and relies solely on donations and grants for funding.
First Step Florence provides secure shelter by offering short term housing units along with a program that helps guide families toward self-sufficiency. Families in need of housing are fully vetted and complete a stringent application process prior to being admitted to the program.
They are supported and monitored throughout their tenancy and are required to follow strict rules in order to participate in the program. First Step provides a family safe environment that is free from violence, drugs, and illicit activity.
