There’s a lot of things that are difficult to do when you’re at a shelter because it isn’t a permanent residence. You aren’t allowed to stay forever. Having a lease in your name isn’t just a technical difference, it can be a requirement for a lot of things like training programs, credit cards, etc.

And the city contracts many of its supportive services to non-profits; they’ve been doing it longer and know the communities better.
