CHFA 2024 Awards Direct Effects to Community Compassion Outreach!
Scholarships for recovery residents is available with this award. People from inpatient treatment for substance use disorders or from prison / jail and those sober more than 72 hours don't have income for rent. Direct Effects Award provides up to $7,500 total to help a person's 1st-2nd month's rent at In His Time, LLC Recovery Residences in Durango, CO. That period is for residents to get employment and their paychecks which lowers the stress of maintaining sobriety in a drug-alcohol-free home with up to 6 individuals in the men's and women's homes. Without scholarships, the people needing sober-living would not be able to return to society. It's necessary for a person's recovery journey to include a place with peer-based coaching, therapy, appointments for probation or parole and for holding down employment.
