It is why The Road Home provides individualized support and why we are committed to strong partnerships across our community
Through the dedication of The Road Home team members, we have walked alongside those experiencing homelessness, providing a strong hand to help them do the hard work of moving to housing stability. Our Homeless Resource Center programs continue to succeed in their goal of providing safe shelter for more than 5,000 people including over 1,000 children Our housing program staff had to dig even deeper this year to find affordable housing in our community and stretched funding to remove housing barriers and support drastic increases in deposits and rents for as many households as possible. Our support services and case management teams stayed focused on their trauma informed practices, as so many in our community continue to be affected by uncertainty, including economic and mental health struggles
A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Amid a volatile economy unlike anything we have seen before, we remained financially stable, held ourselves to the highest standard of compliance and accountability, and completed an overhaul of our compensation plan to raise wages twice in one year. Even with those changes, our team deserves more. The work they do is incredibly challenging every day, and our programs are a cornerstone of support for our community and our state

It is from this basis that we doubled down on our efforts to become a more inclusive agency, with a diverse staff better able to connect with our guests and guided by specific and measurable goals to track our progress.
My deepest thanks to The Road Home team, volunteers, donors, and all who work beside us as we demand changes and do not accept homelessness as a norm in Salt Lake City We can do better and we must do better The Road Home will be here today, tomorrow, and as long as it takes
To help people step out of homelessness and back into our community.

As The Road Home closed out our fiscal year in June 2022, I have reflected on a year of continued challenge and change, gratitude and struggle, frustration and accomplishment, and beautiful moments of joy.
MISSION
We know that success includes making strong connections with whatever support each household needs, including income, employment, counseling, affordable childcare and transportation, health care, and much more

We envision people moving seamlessly from the cold streets into warm housing; from despair and alienation toward home and inclusion
A MESSAGE FROM OUR BOARD PRESIDENT VISION
We envision a community that recognizes the inherent dignity of those who live in poverty and homelessness. The Road Home will work with all of our partners to realize this vision.

With your support, The Road Home helped with emergency shelter and housing services
The Road Home remains deeply committed to: being a safe refuge for people otherwise living on the streets and extremes of weather; providing supportive services to help people connect to community resources; supporting people in their successful transition out of shelter into housing, as quickly as possible; and providing permanent housing solutions for people experiencing homelessness for various lengths of time.
IMPACT
Starting in 2005 we began operating under the Housing First approach, a national best practice showing that moving people into homes as quickly as possible, then providing client driven supportive services to optimize stability, is the best way to address homelessness In 2009, we became the central Rapid Re housing provider for families in our county The work we do to bolster vulnerable people with the critical supports they need results in a stronger community for all
THE ROAD HOME PAGE 05
One change occurred in October 2001, officially changing our name to The Road Home to better reflect our mission of helping people step out of homelessness and back into our community through emergency services, personalized case management and additional resources We have adapted and innovated to provide leading edge services that help families and individuals lift themselves out of homelessness Our programs include emergency shelter since 1986, housing programs since 1992, and supportive services including case management and housing navigation

The Johnson family had been staying at the Midvale Family Resource Center since Anna, the mother, suffered a stroke last year. They had been diligently looking for housing on a daily basis, working closely with their Case Manager and other members of the Midvale Family Resource Center's Housing Team.
After a few weeks, the Johnson family found a unit that could accommodate them They are now in a stable place of their own and have various community supports that will continue to help them on their journey.

He is thrilled to have a quiet place of his own to read, and he has shared his books with the community. When his Case Manager visited him after moving in, Weston was excited to report that he had been able to reconnect with a sister who worked just a few blocks away

With a history of traumatic experiences and severe depression, Weston sought help at the Men’s Resource Center where he spent nearly all his time reading books. Weston was initially nervous to meet with a Case Manager, fearing he would not be able to live stably on his own. The Case Management team worked side by side with Weston until he was accepted into a supportive housing unit. During his tour, Weston spotted a small private library in the common area, which prompted him to sign the lease on the spot.
Because of your support, he is able to enjoy and share one of his favorite activities!
