Families and individuals who once were facing homelessness now have a place to call home at The Lighthouse Haven in Steubenville. With one, two and three bedroom apartments this supportive housing development offers a chance at stability through services available to its residents.
Jefferson Behavioral Health System, the sponsor of this project, successfully led a development team through the CSH Supportive Housing Institute. The institute consists of six months of training and technical support with CSH staff and supportive housing experts with the goal of creating quality supportive housing projects throughout the state.
CSH also provided a $50,000 Predevelopment Initiation Loan to help Lighthouse Haven go from concept to reality with often hard to secure early stage financing.
Funding for Lighthouse Have was provided by the Ohio Housing Finance Agency, Department of Mental Health, and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati.
