Homelessness
Reducing Housing Insecurity for Families & Transitional Age Youth
We believe that there are critical moments that can alter the trajectory of a child’s life, including the ability to escape poverty. We are committed to funding innovative and highly effective programs that reduce housing insecurities, and the accompanying traumas, for families and transitional age youth.
Yardi is currently focusing these efforts on organizations in the following cities: Atlanta, GA; Austin, TX; Dallas, TX; Raleigh, NC; Santa Barbara, CA.

Far too many families are experiencing housing insecurities. We work with organizations aimed at reducing housing insecurities for families today and those seeking to prevent future housing challenges.
