One person was very nice but the other two just sat there and talked some nonsense and wasted time the day before. Would be 4 a but the "community" seems to not care about people who need it honestly.

Questions & Answers

My mom getting transferred to Orlando Florida's and me and husband have no funds to get there. Is there a center that can help us

Martha West | Oct 30, 2018
Upward Transitions, Inc. | Oct 30, 2019

We do not provide relocation assistance and I am unaware of any organization that does. However, you may have some luck contacting a local church for assistance.

DO THEY HELP SINGLE MEN??

Ryan Bellin | Aug 30, 2022
Upward Transitions, Inc. | Aug 30, 2022

We assist households with minor children and/or with someone over 55 years old living in the household with their rent and utilities. We do, however, assist those experiencing homeless, including single men, when they are referred to us by any of the agencies who assist those who need this type of assistance. Here is a list of other agencies that do help single men: Salvation Army, City Rescue Mission, Catholic Charities, and the Jesus House. Take care.

UT did not for a brief time. You have to have a referral and the office is closed to the public. Have a case manager at Homeless Alliance send a referral.
