Safe housing
A structured, substance free home where women can build routines, feel grounded, and focus on their next chapter.
YAYA’S HOUSE INC.
Housing & Supportive Services
Our planned residential model pairs a structured, substance free home with practical resources for lasting housing stability. Each woman’s journey is individual. Our role is to help create the foundation, connections, and skills that support her next chapter.
Program development update: Our first home is planned for Oakland. Admissions are not yet open, and we cannot confirm bed availability or move in dates.
Who the first home is being developed for
The initial residential program is designed for adult women age 18 and older experiencing housing instability or significant life transitions. Children are not part of the initial residential model. Final eligibility, application, and referral procedures will be published before opening.
Support that looks beyond the stay
Planned resources include individualized housing stability planning, life skills, financial education, employment and education connections, wellness resources, permanent housing preparation, and appropriate community referrals.
Our model does not provide medical care, clinical mental health treatment, detoxification, or licensed substance use treatment. We intend to build connections with qualified providers for needs outside our scope.
OUR PLANNED APPROACH
Support for the whole journey.
Five connected pillars. One purpose: helping women build a future they can sustain.
Healing and wellness
Wellness resources, supportive connections, and referrals that honor each woman’s individual needs and goals.
Career and economic development
Support with employment readiness, education connections, and steps toward greater economic opportunity.
Housing stability
Individualized planning, resource navigation, and preparation for the transition to permanent housing.
Life skills and independence
Practical skills for budgeting, financial confidence, household routines, and everyday independence.
Our residential program is in development. Opening dates, availability, and enrollment details will be shared as launch preparations are completed. We do not provide medical care, detoxification, or clinical treatment.
