Redemption Housing is a faith-based transitional housing provider serving returning citizens in Philadelphia. The organization addresses the cycle of recidivism through holistic programming, structured community living, and supportive relationships. Grounded in Christian hospitality and resident-focused service, Redemption Housing supports residents’ physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being in a restorative environment designed to promote long-term stability.
Residents may be eligible for housing support through Pennsylvania’s Supervision to Aid Reentry (STAR) program, which allows qualified individuals to utilize PHA vouchers that can cover rental costs for up to two years.
What to expect
Residents live in structured, community-based homes with accountability guidelines and mentorship support. Programming may include life skills development, recovery support, employment encouragement, and spiritual growth opportunities. Participation in community expectations is required. Some residents may transition into STAR-supported housing arrangements if eligible.
