Systems Gap Filling
RRS weaves together existing systems to create a stronger safety net. Rather than duplicating services, we build relationships, improve communication, and collaborate to make the system more responsive.

RRS strongly advocates for individuals to be at the level of support that works best for them. The level of support needed can change depending on the needs of that individual at any given time. Movement up and down the elevator is normal. The journey out of homelessness is almost never linear.
