Do you provide treatment?- BAFS offers several types of housing with supportive services. We do not provide treatment. Many residents attend out-patient treatment through local providers. Some attend in-patient treatment prior to coming to BAFS.
Do you accept insurance of any kind?- Transitional housing costs vary depending on a persons situation and available funding. We charge $225 per month plus $200 for food. We also charge a $35 app/screening fee. The majority of residents pay for food with SNAP benefits.
- Permanent housing costs range from $245 for a private room and bath. This building has shared kitchens. Two bedroom apartments start at $390. Household income limits apply.
When I call during business hours I get a recording asking me to leave a message. What's up with that? - A positive thing about today's economy is that it encourages organizations to become more efficient and cost effective. We do not have a dedicated staff person to answer the phone. When you call us during business hours and don't immediately get an answer it's usually because we are helping someone else. If you leave us a message more than one person will be notified. One of us will return your call as quickly as we can. You can help us help you by leaving a brief message.
- We are not an "emergency housing" provider, however, it is our goal to provide housing as quickly as possible. Occasionally we are able to get someone into our transitional housing program the same day they apply. Often, it takes a little longer. A list of emergency housing providers is provided on the Links page.
How do I apply? - You can download a short application form and mail it, fax it, attach it to an email, or bring it by our office. If you are working with another agency ask the person you're working with to complete the referral form and return it to us. We can also send you an application or referral form. Just give us a call.
