The homeless in North Durham don’t live on the street, covered in sleeping bags. They’re your friend’s adult child who moved home with their children due to the high cost of rent, the cousin who sleeps on your couch while searching for an affordable apartment, or the teenager you frequently see in front of the corner store.
North House provides a spectrum of housing supports for those who are at risk or in crisis within the communities of North Durham through programs such as: Homelessness Prevention Outreach, Rental Subsidies, Seasonal Tax Preparations, as well as, Landlord and Tenant Relations.
Join us on February 23, 2019 to walk a mile in their shoes. You can’t truly appreciate how cold it can be for someone without a home until you’ve walked 2km, 5km, or 10km in their shoes.
