Sussex Community Crisis Housing Services, Inc (SCCHS), has been providing shelter and supportive services to homeless individuals and families since 1981.  The agency’s atmosphere creates an environment that nurtures personal and family dignity, enhances self-esteem and promotes independence, housing stability and financial security.  

As the economy and housing market has changed so have the "faces of homelessness",  SCCHS never missed a beat in meeting the needs of the newly homeless.  

Special programs were developed to serve the emerging 55+ female homeless  population and new partnerships were forged to find adequate permanent housing for our clients. 

For the first time in agency history we had a single mother partner with Habitat for Humanity and move into her own home in December 2010.  Following in Charlene's footsteps, Our second family, Danielle and son Raymond settled into their Habitat home in June 2011.  Again in 2013 Kisha, son Terrance and daughere Brianna moved into their new home just in time to celebrate Christmas.  We are very proud of both our families, making a difference for themselves and their children. 

JUNE 1st the agency will participate in a 24 hour long online campaign to raise funds for state wide non profits.
