New Beginnings of Tampa runs a large Transitional Housing and Homeless Recovery Program that provides unaccompanied women, men and young adults over the age 18 with a safe place to live and an individualized, gender-responsive program of guidance and job training programs to help them stabilize their lives. A large percentage of our clients are U.S. Veterans, persons who have bravely served their country.
First, the clients most immediate needs are for shelter, food and/or clothing. Once there, they then begin to address other issues that may have contributed to their homelessness: mental or emotional health issues, substance abuse, confinement or probation within the judicial system, family and other relationship issues and/or the inability to maintain employment. The people who come to New Beginnings of Tampa are highly vulnerable; economically, physically, psychologically and socially.
