New: Housing Behavioral Modification Diversion Program
Just launched in partnership with the Housing Authority of the City of Annapolis (HACA), this program employs a positive mindset diversion plan that aims to transition residents at risk of eviction from an "I can't" attitude to an "I can" attitude. By targeting learned behaviors, the program seeks to foster better decision-making and positive outcomes for tenants:
-
Gain a practical and thorough knowledge of the Leasing Agreement and tenant rights
-
Ensure that a family’s home is clean, safe, and cared for
-
Skills to set a family budget, and manage it with discipline to maintain, grow, and set attainable goals for saving money
-
Become tenants who are in compliance with their lease and have a working relationship with their landlords

-
Complete a motivational interview process and set a SMART goal plan to achieve by the end of the sessions
-
Work with a "Guider" who will encourage and challenge each participant during their MSK experience and several months after to ensure accountability in reaching their goals
-
Learn from mental health professionals and trained facilitators how to transform their lives
