The Housing Continuum
There are many organizations working to provide services to Rhode Islanders at each step in the housing continuum. This page does not capture all of the work performed by the organizations listed – they each provide a wide variety of services to meet the needs of the communities they serve.
It’s also important to note that the housing continuum is not linear. For example, a person may go from market-rate housing to homelessness; or from an emergency shelter directly into affordable housing.
