Homestretch

Homestretch provided transitional housing assistance to needy families with children in the form of rent, utilities, expenses and life skills training. Homestretch also provided kitchen furnishings, household furniture and supplies, on a pass-through basis, as items are donated by the community at large. Homestretch, Inc. continues to serve an average of 46 families at any point in time, using a combination of housing models including transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, transitioning-in-place, and affordable housing for low-income families.

Kidstretch is a Virginia Preschool Initiative (VPI) classroom and serves as the early childhood education component of Homestretch. Our goal at Kidstretch is to ensure high quality preschool programming that supports school readiness for three- to five-year olds. As a VPI classroom, Kidstretch also provides child screenings for hearing, vision, developmental, dental, and mental health.
