I'm currently in this program, have been for over two years. This is in Northern Virginia. The way this program works is as long as you're plugged into the shelter (actively in it, or working with a case manager there), you can be put on a list for PSH. I got kicked out of the shelter because I personally could not stay sober there, but weeks after that, leaving a motel six one morning, I get the email saying I'm approved. I had no idea what it even was. So I hauled ass down there and one month later, I was in a free studio apartment. You don't pay utilities or rent or anything for like the first year or maybe even two, and when you get an income, you are expected to pay 30 percent of it. This never ends, as far as I can tell. I have asked every way I can think of, how can I fuck this up? I need to know so I don't. I know of one guy who got kicked out for PCP use, but that's it. Has anyone heard of this in their own area? Or even around here? There is no paperwork for this program. There's no fliers or a website. Nothing. How can something so helpful exist but nobody knows about it?
