The River Arc is committed to helping vulnerable populations find stability and rebuild their lives. Working closely with community partners ensures that those in need have access to safe and affordable housing. Our success stories, such as getting families into new homes, inspire us to continue our important work.

Language barriers can be difficult to overcome, however we're here for you. For instance an individual needed help understanding their health & legal documents. Our interpretation services not only helped them better understand the process, but also enabled them to get a positive result. 

Our assistance programs provide you with the support and resources you need to regain your footing and get back on track. See the impact we have on the lives of the families we work with, and learn more about the programs that you may be eligible for.
