Originally established as the Traveler’s Aid Society in 1923, The Road Home changed its name in 2001 to better reflect our mission of helping people step out of homelessness & back into our community. The Road Home is a private, non-profit social service agency that assists individuals & families with children experiencing homelessness in Salt Lake County & along the Wasatch Front. The agency has been providing emergency shelter services since 1988 & housing services since 1995. The Road Home began operating under a Housing First model in 2005 & became the central Rapid Re-housing provider in Salt Lake County in 2009. We currently offer emergency shelter services in Salt Lake County with no eligibility criteria for clients to access services including; nightly beds, showers, access to laundry facilities, clothing, blankets, diapers, personal toiletries, etc. Case managers can assist clients in connecting with public benefits, substance abuse treatment, mental health assessment & treatment, job training/development, childcare services, housing assistance & more. Our Pamela Atkinson Resource Center, Gail Miller Resource Center & Midvale Family Resource Center can be accessed 24 hours/day, 365 days/year. Priority populations like families with children, Veterans & those experiencing chronic homelessness are assigned case managers to facilitate transitioning out of shelter & into housing as quickly as possible. Case managers work with clients to develop a basic needs assessment & a short-term case plan. Once in housing, case managers continue working with clients to help them build the skills necessary to maintain stable housing, increase income & ensure access to mainstream benefits. This includes conducting in-home visits to ensure participants are meeting the terms of their lease, providing referrals to community resources & helping to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented households from finding or maintaining housing.

We were honored to be one of the local organizations to receive donated funds from the Brady Walk! This show of generosity will help us continue to provide life-saving resources and programs to vulnerable community members.
Today, Code, PDC, by Brady and Brady Corporation participated in the 14th annual Brady Walk to raise funds for employee-nominated, local charities. In #SaltLakeCity, we walked for The Other Side Academy and The Road Home. Brady donated $5,000 to each to help stabilize, train and empower the vulnerable and unhoused. We’re proud to support the communities where our team members live and work. #BetterAtBrady #CommunityInvolvement

A heartfelt thank you to Broadway Media, The Advocates Injury Attorneys, Intrepid and all the amazing participants! Your unwavering support has made the 20th year of the Apple Tree campaign a resounding success! Because of your generosity, over 100 children experiencing homelessness received brand new back-to-school clothing, backpacks, and essential supplies. You’ve given them hope and the tools they need to excel in the classroom and beyond. #BackToSchool #GiveBack
"With an increasing cost of living, it is clear that families cannot afford to maintain housing. More resources need to be dedicated to families at risk of homelessness, so that no child will show up to school homeless." In Utah alone, 11,897 children experienced homelessness in the 2021-2022 school year. National Alliance to End Homelessness https://lnkd.in/gHGzMmkZ
Cost burdens are a direct result of low incomes and the shortage of affordable and available rental homes. Learn more from the National Low Income Housing Coalition at https://bit.ly/4cLMQz3.
