Assistant Director of TAY Rapid Rehousing

Mission Statement

Through the use of social and restorative justice principles, Five Keys provides traditionally underserved communities the opportunity to improve their lives through a focus on the Five Keys: EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT, RECOVERY, FAMILY, COMMUNITY.

Rehousing Programs

Five Keys has case management contracts with the San Francisco Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing (HSH) for a number of re-housing programs designed to place people who are unhoused or are guests in temporary shelters into permanent housing on the private market with temporary subsidies or permanent vouchers. These programs include Rising Up for transitional aged youth, Adult Rapid Rehousing, Flexible Pool Subsidy Program, and Emergency Housing Vouchers for returning citizens. Five Keys is contracted to provide individualized care management for participants who are placed into these programs through the coordinated entry system. These programs are complex partnerships between various organizations in San Francisco– including HSH, the Office of Economic and Workforce Development, the SF Department of Public Health, and multiple community-based agencies that provide housing location and rental subsidy services.
