Haus of Codec

Mission: Building community through the arts and educational empowerment. Based in the Creative Capital, Haus of Codec is committed to ensuring an end to transition-aged youth homelessness in Providence through the arts and workforce development.

Vision: To create a safer and more accessible means to housing, care, and essential services for displaced transition aged youth.

Haus of Codec, a new (2021) emergency housing provider for transition-aged youth ages 18-24 who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. We provide rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and emergency housing services in addition to case management, a clothing pantry, a food pantry, access to free mental health care, and a transportation stipend for each client. In addition, we work with youth exposed to the juvenile justice system, aging out of foster care, or not returning home because of their homes for their sexuality or gender. This demographic sees a more significant risk of violence and abuse in larger, less amenable shelter spaces our state has historically provided. Since our inception Haus of Codec has completed intake for nearly 200 youth ages 18 - 24.
