On-the-Go Housing Enhancement Program


Welcome to the "On-the-Go Housing Enhancement Program," a one-of-a-kind initiative aimed at filling a critical gap in support for individuals living in on-the-go housing arrangements.


Unlike traditional housing assistance programs that primarily focus on brick-and-mortar homes, our program is uniquely tailored to cater to the specific needs of those residing in RVs, cars, mobile homes, and tents.


With an estimated reserached information from Goolge- there is a possible stimated 9 million or more  individuals and families now living in on-the-go housing, particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic, our mission is to extend a helping hand to all those in-between living situations.


From providing repairs and improvements for heating, water, and food storing to offering assistance with essential amenities like air conditioners, heaters, freezers, fridges, and roofing repairs, kitchen faucets, and building bunk beds within RV, we are dedicated to enhancing living conditions and ensuring a safer, more comfortable life for everyone we serve.


Together, let's make a positive impact and empower those in on-the-go housing to thrive amidst challenging circumstances and giving a loving home to be proud of and strive in.

"Exploring Peer Support Supervision!"


"Hey there, curious minds! Let's explore Peer Support Supervision together!


In peer support supervision, we work as a team to help and support each other. We have supervisors who guide us and make sure everyone gets a chance to share their ideas.


Co-reflection is an important part of peer support supervision. It means we think and learn together, like puzzle pieces fitting together to create something amazing!

Through peer support supervision, we become better at listening, understanding different perspectives, and solving problems as a team.


Join us on this exciting journey of developing an OHA approved peer support supervision curriculum where we learn, grow, and make a positive difference in the lives of others. Stay tuned for more!"

Reaching Out, Lifting Up:

Peer-driven Support for

Rural Communities



In the next 10–15 years, we want to bring our programs to more rural counties in Oregon. We want to support more people in these communities by creating organizations that are run by peers like us. We hope that our programs can be a good example for other states to follow.


Our goal is to give more people the chance to take control of their own recovery and well-being. We want to support them in feeling better and getting the help they need, even if they live far away from cities. By going to other rural counties, we can support more people and make a difference in their lives.


We also want to share what we do with other states. We want them to see that having peer-driven programs is important and can support a lot of people. We hope that our success can inspire other places to start their own programs and make a positive change for people who need support.
