Application Process

Please Read Before Applying

Brooks House is a transitional, non-emergency shelter. Our program is designed for women who are ready to participate in a structured environment and work toward long-term stability.  Applications for Brooks House must be completed in person at the house and are not available online or by mail. A valid photo ID is required when applying. Once an application is submitted, our team will review it and conduct background checks for all applicants. Because Brooks House is a transitional (non-emergency) shelter, the full review process may take several weeks to complete.

 

If no rooms are available at the time of approval, applicants may be placed on a waiting list until space becomes available. Appointments to complete an application may be scheduled, but they are not required.

 

We are not:

An overnight or emergency shelter

A drug or alcohol rehabilitation program

A domestic violence shelter
