Housing Stable homes with the support to stay housed.
2026 Kirkland House Expansion Project
Fully funded. Construction begins Spring 2026.
Housing at PorchLight is part of a larger continuum of care. Individuals must first become PorchLight clients and work with a case manager to explore housing options. Together, we assess each person’s situation, remove barriers, and identify the housing path that best supports long-term stability.
The Kirkland House Expansion Project represents a significant investment in permanent supportive housing for men who have experienced homelessness. With full funding secured, construction will begin in Spring 2026 to expand and modernize the building, allowing PorchLight to house more men while improving safety, accessibility, and long-term livability. This project strengthens a proven housing resource for men who have already taken important steps toward stability, ensuring the physical space reflects the depth of care, consistency, and opportunity provided through PorchLight programs.
