First Step Florence focuses on helping families residing within Florence, Oregon that are in need of safe and stable housing.
We offer the only transitional housing program in Florence, Oregon.
Our unique program teaches participants to set and achieve goals appropriate for their own family’s progress and includes housing assistance, job placement, and a financial saving plan.
First Step resources and programs are designed to encourage successful living and to date has helped move over thirty children, along with their parents, out of insecure living situations.
First Step offers private housing units for individual families in safe and secure locations throughout the Florence area.
Each of our locations is mantained and fully monitored by First Step.
We are also in the beginning stages of developing a
permanent location for our program. This will include 40 brand new housing units , a child care center, and community center, on our very own multi-acred site.
First Step Florence is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that 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 go through 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.
