who we help

Imagine...

It’s your first day after graduating from a sober living facility. You’ve worked tirelessly to rebuild your life, but as you wake up in your new apartment, the space feels cold and empty. There’s no bed, no furniture, no basic household items to make the place feel like home. After all the effort you’ve put in, the emptiness around you begins to chip away at your sense of accomplishment.

Now, imagine a grandmother who has spent her life caring for others. She’s finally found housing but has nothing more than a few blankets on the floor. The apartment is far from welcoming, and the lack of essential furniture makes her wonder if she can ever create a comforting space for her grandchildren to visit.

Or think about someone fleeing an abusive relationship. They’ve escaped with nothing but their children, leaving behind everything they own. There’s no bed to tuck them into, no table to share meals, and the future feels uncertain with nothing but an empty room to greet them.

At Coastal Housing Resources (CHR), we understand that moving into stable housing is only the first step for many individuals and families overcoming significant life challenges. The absence of basic furniture and household items can be a demoralizing barrier to rebuilding a life of dignity and comfort. That’s why CHR steps in to provide essential furnishings, creating homes filled with warmth, stability, and hope.

We help individuals and families like those graduating from sober living, single parents, seniors, survivors of domestic violence, and anyone who has fallen on hard times. These individuals deserve more than an empty space—they deserve the chance to start anew with a home that reflects the stability and comfort they’ve worked so hard to attain.
