The Emergency Shelter Program offers homeless individuals and families a 3 to 90 day stay. Case management and short term goals assist with locating permanent housing. There are shelters in Bingen 5 rooms (Klickitat County) and Stevenson 5 rooms (Skamania County). Supportive Housing is a two-year housing program available to qualified homeless persons. Permanent Supportive Housing is permanent housing for those with some type of disability. Case management and other assistance is available upon tenant request. This project is located in Bingen 8 units, and scattered throughout Klickitat and Skamania counties. In this program, the client holds the contract with the landlord so that at the end of the program they can stay in their unit and WAGAP steps back. Turning Point Rapid Re-housing is for unaccompanied youth ages 18-24 and families with children. Similar to Permanent Supportive Housing it is a two year program where the client holds the lease and pays 30% of their income towards rent. At the end of the two year program WAGAP steps away and they are able to stay in the home. Housing program coordinators are all certified family development specialists. This training provides information on assessing housing barriers and guiding enrollees to employment, transportation, education, life skills, and increased self-sufficiency through goal setting with month-to-month planning. 2079736 Food and Nutrition WAGAP is the lead organization and distribution center for the food banks in Klickitat and Skamania counties.
