More Than Housing.A Path to Stability.
Safe housing is the beginning. Care, advocacy and connection create the path forward.
The Refuge works alongside elderly, disabled and veteran residents facing housing, medical and benefits crises.
We help navigate healthcare, benefits and community resources — and advocate alongside congressional, state and local leaders when barriers stand in the way of stability.

When a resident faced a barrier, we advocated for a solution.
When an administrative issue interrupted critical benefits for a Refuge resident preparing for surgery at Jackson Memorial Hospital, The Refuge reached out for assistance.
Congresswoman Frederica Wilson and her team responded promptly, helping address the issue in less than 72 hours so our resident could move forward with the support he needed.
We are deeply grateful to Congresswoman Wilson and her team for their responsiveness and commitment to serving our community.
