Houston has made great strides in addressing homelessness, but many individuals with disabilities continue to face barriers to permanent housing and stability. Civic Heart Community Services remains committed to meeting this need through programs that are purpose-driven and system-aligned.
Rescue In Motion (RIM) 2.0 is a permanent supportive housing program designed to serve chronically homeless individuals with disabilities. Operated by Adult Services, RIM connects eligible individuals with long-term housing, intensive case management, rental subsidies, and supportive services to help stabilize their lives and prevent future homelessness.
Important: RIM does not provide emergency rental assistance, shelter, or intake by phone or email.
To be considered for this program, individuals must first go through Houston’s Coordinated Entry system. This system matches people to available housing programs based on their needs and eligibility.
