Housing
Partners’ Housing Coordinators make sure people have options for clean, safe, and affordable housing. Our goal is to give everyone capable of living independently in the community the opportunity to do so. Coordinators work with community groups, boards, councils, and organizations sharing our goal for housing for people with mental illness, substance use disorders, and intellectual or developmental disabilities.
If you are looking for a safe and affordable place to live, talk to your provider, email housing@partnersbhm.org, or call the number associated with the county in which you are seeking housing:

Our Housing Department can also arrange education on a variety of topics like the NC Fair Housing Law and How to Be a Good Landlord/Tenant.
