Career and Recovery Resources provides individualized and strategic resources to enable clients to move their lives in a new direction. Our tenacity and heart promise everyone leaves with a chance, a barrier broken, or another opportunity that leads to sustainable change.

How We Help The Homeless

Career and Recovery Resources is one of 100 partners of The Way Home CoC (Continuum of Care), The Coalition for the Homeless of Houston/Harris County. The first step for those needing help in a housing crisis is to contact a designated assessment Hub in Houston to complete a housing assessment. This information is captured in a centralized computer and shared with an established service provider in Greater Houston to coordinate the housing delivery service. Career and Recovery Resources provides housing services to 400 Houstonians through The Way Home Coordinated Access System. 85% of our clients remain stably housed for over one year.

The 2022 Homeless Count & Survey shows that we can expect to see 3,223 people experiencing homelessness at any given moment in the Houston region.
