Housing Navigation Services:
Dane County continues to face challenges for individuals and families to find affordable housing. Not only are their a limited number of affordable units, but navigating the system to find these units can be challenging for people who are often facing many other issues that complicate the process. Factors such as limited income or lack of favorable housing history and complicating issues such as substance abuse and mental illness often slow the process of finding housing to a stand-still. For these reasons Housing Navigation is a critical tool to ensure that all individuals and families who are trying to find housing can access housing.
