Hi, I need help finding emergency housing or shelter.
My name is [your name], and I'm interested in the Lighthouse Housing Stability Services - Oakland County program.
I wanted to ask whether there are any requirements I should know about, such as At or below 80% AMI, Oakland County?
I also wanted to confirm your current hours. I see Mon-Fri 9am-5pm. Is that still accurate?
And just to confirm — is this service free of charge?
What is the best way to get started? I see call_or_online.
Thank you so much for your help.
