Emergency Shelter-ES Any facility that the primary purpose of which is to provide temporary or transitional shelter for the homeless in general or for specific subpopulations of the homeless, while they prepare to move into more stable housing. The housing and services are typically provided for up to 90 days or until specific goals are accomplished by the client. Transitional Housing-TH Is one type of supportive housing used to facilitate the movement of homeless individuals and families to permanent housing. It is housing in which homeless persons may live up to 24 months and receive supportive services that enable them to live more independently. The supportive services may be provided by the organization managing the housing or provided by other public or private agencies. Safe Haven-SH An SHP component type that serves hard-to-reach homeless persons who have severe mental illness, are on the streets and have been unable or unwilling to participate in supportive services. The program provides 24-hour residence for an unspecified duration and may provide support services to eligible persons who are not residents, on a drop-in basis. Safe Havens do not require participation in services and referrals as a condition of occupancy. Rather, it is hoped that after a period of stabilization in a safe haven, the resident will be more willing to participate in services and referrals and will eventually be ready to move to more traditional form of housing. Permanent Supportive Housing-PSH Provides long-term (not time-limited), safe, and decent housing for homeless persons with disabilities. Permanent housing is the ultimate goal of the Continuum, and may be provided in a structure or at scattered sites. Permanent supportive housing enables homeless persons to live independently.
