Arkansas transitional housing programs.

The currently homeless and residents facing eviction can get assistance from transitional housing resources and other charitable programs. Many non-profits in Arkansas help the evicted, homeless, and low income families by providing them with temporary lodging, placement into a homeless shelter and other support. Clients of the programs will also be able to enroll into several other services, such as job placement, training, and self-sufficiency. Most of the towns and cities in Arkansas have some form of low income and/or transitional housing program. If a location is not near you then referrals and other information may be provided. Some centers focus on veterans, single parents, youth, or the long term homeless. Some of the short term housing providers also provide assistance in the form of Section 8 housing choice vouchers . There is often a waiting list in place as resources and capacity is limited. However most will offer some form of support or guidance to anyone seeking help.
