From emergency shelter to affordable housing, we provide the full continuum of safe, supportive housing that serves as the foundation for families to achieve lasting self-sufficiency and thriving communities.

Our Housing Approach

Time For Change Foundation believes that housing is the linchpin to achieving success. Our main goal is that all families will transition into permanent housing with the capability of maintaining that housing in a clean and nurturing environment where children can thrive.

Time For Change Foundation is the model of excellence in the State of California for empowering disenfranchised families transitioning from homelessness and recidivism. Today, we offer three types of housing: emergency shelter, permanent-supportive housing, and affordable housing. We currently operate 4 emergency shelters, 10 units of permanent-supportive housing, and the Phoenix Square, our first affordable housing development.

Emergency housing

Immediate Safety and Support When Families Need It Most

Our emergency shelters provide more than just a place to sleep—they offer the first crucial step toward stability with comprehensive support services designed to help families rebuild their lives.

Emergency Shelters

Helping Homeless Shelters in Southern California Meet Their Goals

Our Southern California shelters provide weekly case management and supportive services to help clients reach their goals. Our clients can stay in both of our shelters for up to 24 months, giving them the time needed to develop stability and self-sufficiency skills.

At Sweet Dreams, children are the priority. Mothers learn life skills that will help them become healthy and self-sufficient. They attend parenting skills workshops and participate in other daily activities that provide support—designed to rebuild trust, develop independence, and provide a nurturing environment for parent and child. Clients get assistance with free clinical exams, WIC, education, vocational training, family planning services, and access to healthy childcare.

Our Mountain View emergency shelter for single women provides the tools they need to get back on their feet and become active and healthy members of their communities. We offer a host of direct services and refer our clients to mental health counseling, adult education, computer skills training, vocational training, healthcare services, and legal aid.

Northern California Emergency Shelter

Emergency Housing for Men and Children in Northern California

Opened in 2018, Brighter Futures is Time for Change Foundation’s home for men recovering from incarceration and homelessness wishing to become self-sufficient and reunite with their children. A Brighter Future waits for those wishing to change the course of their lives and become fully self-sufficient, including on-site case management, life skills education, and a host of other services.

Permanent support housing

Long-Term Stability for Families Who Need Ongoing Support

Homes of Hope – Permanent Supportive Housing Program for Homeless Families
Funded by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), our Homes of Hope project provides permanent supportive housing for homeless families—placing them directly into their own apartment. Coupled with intensive case management and supportive services, families can thrive and maintain permanent housing. Employment and education are the keys to ensuring success.

Currently, we have 10 permanent supportive housing locations in San Bernardino County that serve chronically homeless families with complex needs, providing the ongoing support necessary for long-term housing stability.

Affordable housing

Developing Quality Housing Where Families Can Thrive

Phoenix Square – Permanent Affordable Housing Project in Downtown San Bernardino
Our main goal is that all families will transition into permanent housing with the capability of maintaining their housing in a clean and nurturing environment where children can thrive. The lack of decent, affordable housing motivated us to create The Phoenix Square, our first of many affordable housing projects.

Our Phoenix Square sets the standard for low-income housing in California, providing a safe place where families can live and thrive, where children are able to attend the same school more than one year in a row. Awarded the “Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design” and the “Crime-Free Multi Housing” certifications, the Phoenix Square proves to be a vital asset to the Inland Region.

As housing developers, we are committed to creating more affordable housing solutions that address the critical shortage of quality, affordable homes for low-income families.
