At C-Line Community Outreach Services, we are dedicated to empowering individuals facing housing instability and other life challenges related to substance use and mental health. We serve populations at risk of homelessness—including those who are couch-surfing, facing eviction within 21 days, or living in overcrowded conditions—as well as individuals transitioning from or at risk of institutionalization, such as hospitals, treatment facilities, or long-term care settings. Our program also supports those recently released from correctional facilities, helping them successfully reintegrate into the community.
Through compassionate, person-centered care, we connect individuals with essential resources such as food assistance, employment opportunities, transportation, and both temporary and permanent housing support. In addition, we provide education and guidance to help sustain housing stability, ensuring that each person has the tools and support needed to build a safe, independent, and fulfilling life.
Healing is a process of growth that happens session by session, skill by skill
Many clients face both emotional health challenges and substance use concerns. C-Line provides integrated support that blends therapy, relapse prevention skills, and coordinated care.
