Hearth, Inc. - ending elder homelessness

Hearth, Inc. - ending elder homelessness Hearth is dedicated to the elimination of homelessness among the elderly. We house, prevent, and/or stabilize housing for individuals over 50.

We manage 228 units of permanent supportive housing and an Outreach program, which helps over 250 elders each year to find and succeed in housing of their own. Recently we partnered with the Corporation for Supportive Housing to create a National Initiative to End Elder Homelessness.

In her July CEO Corner, Hearth President and CEO Rhonda Pieroni reflects on what independence really means for older adults who have experienced homelessness. It is a locked door, a kitchen of one's own, and a schedule no one else controls. Read more about the continuum of care that makes it possible: https://hearth-home.org/what-independence-really-means/

Hearth President and CEO Rhonda Pieroni recently joined the PR Bunker Podcast to talk about what it takes to help an older adult move from facing homelessness into a home of their own. "It can be frightening to put that key in the door and then close that door behind you," she says.

Independence looks like cooking your own dinner again. Like neighbors who know your name. Like aging on your own terms, in a home that's yours.

That's what a stable home makes possible for the older adults Hearth serves. We talk about three things a home gives back. Stability. Dignity. Community.

Here's something most people don't know. Older adults are one of the fastest-growing groups facing housing instability in our region.

It's not because they did anything wrong. It's because a housing system built for younger, wealthier people left them with nowhere to age. We're working to change that, one home at a time, and we can't do it alone. Thank you for standing with us.

Small purchases can add up to real change. Through the end of July, every $3.00 Give Back Where It Counts Reusable Bag purchased at Shaw's on 246 Border Street in East Boston sends $1 directly to Hearth's mission to end older adult homelessness. It's an easy way to support the housing, outreach, and prevention services that keep our neighbors safe and stable. Thank you, Shaw's, for making it simple to give back this month.
