View our 2023 Moriah House Fact Sheet
The Moriah House Family Shelter accepts female veterans and families who are experiencing homeless or have resided in substandard living conditions.
These families are challenged with issues of economic hardship, physical and emotional trauma, chemical dependency, mental illness, physical illness, lack of education, or lack of employment. All residents meet Ohio’s guidelines for extremely low or low income levels with over 90% in the extremely low-income category.
Moriah House provides a full range of transitional services that assist residents in moving from homelessness to stable housing and employment through these basic programs:
Interim housing provides a safe place to live, meals, and all other basic necessities.
Housing navigation services enable each resident to work directly with skilled staff to develop an individualized plan for permanent housing, stable income, self-sufficiency, and education/training.
Family Services staff work with the children and their parents to address each child’s unique mental, physical, social, and educational need. Trauma-specific interventions are coordinated with other social service agencies, medical professionals and educators.
For assistance or any additional questions you may call our Shelter directly at 216-631-4141.
Before being placed in an interim housing or housing solutions program at West Side Catholic Center clients are required to contact Cuyahoga County Coordinated Intake.
