Homelessness & Housing
From Homelessness to Stability
We work with Catholic Housing, Housing Forward, and other community partners to provide permanent, supportive housing for formerly homeless individuals at St. Jude Forest Lane, St. Jude Park Central, and St. Jude Vantage Point.
St. Jude Centers
Our St. Jude Centers provide permanent, supportive housing to formerly homeless individuals.
We strive to serve a diverse population willing to live within the guidelines and safety protocols for the complex, creating community and collaborative promotion of all residents’ well-being and growth.
Eligibility
Catholic Charities Dallas relies on the Coordinated Access System managed by Housing Forward to ensure that the most vulnerable and disadvantaged are screened and selected. Our programs do not accept outside referrals, calls for residency, or walk-ins.
St. Jude Centers only accept referrals directly from social service agencies or Housing Forward. Client must be working with a social service agency, documented as homeless in the Housing Forward housing priority list, and pass a background screening before being accepted as a St. Jude Center resident. Also, the referring agency must provide case management and secure the subsidy (through grants or vouchers) for each resident referred to a St. Jude Center.
