Since 1995, Community Partnership for Homeless (CPH) has been assisting homeless men, women and families with children in transitioning off the streets of Miami-Dade County and on their way to attaining greater stability and self-sufficiency. As the private sector partner of the Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust, CPH has continually been recognized as a national model for their comprehensive approach to helping the homeless. The program’s main catalyst for success — the Homeless Assistance Centers — operate as one-stop temporary care entry points that provide not just food and shelter, but comprehensive case management, healthcare, dental care, daycare, job training and other assistance from a variety of social service agencies all under one roof.
