ELIGIBILITY & NEXT STEPS

Understand the fit.
Take your next step.

Clear expectations help you decide whether Breathe Again Living may be the right place for your next chapter.

We’re preparing to open our first home. Inquiries and applications do not guarantee a space or admission.

WHO OUR PROGRAM IS FOR

A shared home.
A commitment to moving forward.

We welcome inquiries from adults seeking transitional housing, including women, mothers with children, men, and young adults. Each application is reviewed individually for program fit, household needs, and availability.

Separate homes

We are planning a home for women, including women with children, and a separate home for men. Young adults would be considered for the appropriate home based on individual needs, program fit, and availability.

Substance-free living

Residents must be willing to maintain a substance-free environment and follow BAL’s Drug & Alcohol Testing Policy. Alcohol, illegal drugs, unauthorized controlled substances, and misuse of prescription medications are prohibited.

Respect & accountability

Residents agree to respectful conduct, household responsibilities, house curfew and visitor guidelines, healthy boundaries, and honest communication with the House Manager.

Participation in growth

Residents are expected to take part in an individual recovery and growth plan. Depending on their goals, this may include employment, education, life skills, recovery support, or community resources. Religious activities and the Healing Program are optional.

$225 per resident, per week

We’ll discuss payment arrangements, what is included, and any applicable fees before an agreement is signed. Applicants may be employed, seeking work, or using other income or resources; financial circumstances are discussed during review.

Mothers remain caregivers

Mothers retain responsibility for their children’s care, supervision, school, transportation, healthcare, and childcare arrangements. BAL provides housing and support; it does not provide childcare or babysitting.

Background requirements

BAL is unable to accept applicants with violent or sexual offenses. Other backgrounds are reviewed individually, considering circumstances, supervision requirements, and whether the shared housing environment and available support can meet the person’s needs.

Please contact BAL directly to discuss background questions. Do not send detailed background records through ordinary email.

Understanding our support

BAL provides housing and nonclinical support. We do not provide medical treatment, detoxification, or personal care services. Please discuss your support needs and any accommodation requests with us so we can review whether the home can appropriately meet your needs.

An inquiry, referral, or application does not guarantee admission. BAL makes placement decisions after individual review.

HOW TO APPLY

Let’s take this
one step at a time.

  1. Review the program expectations.

    Read the eligibility information, separate home arrangements, weekly rate, and expectations above. Call us with any questions about fit.

  2. Submit your first-step application online.

    Tell us how to contact you, the home you’re interested in, your goals, and the support you’re seeking. Google Forms displays a confirmation once your application is received. Detailed intake and supporting records are handled directly with BAL.

  3. Review the next steps together.

    BAL may request an interview or additional information. We’ll review program fit, payment expectations, household guidelines, and availability before making a placement decision.

  4. Prepare for an approved placement.

    If approved and a suitable space is available, we’ll explain the agreement, orientation, and move-in process.

Your next chapter starts here.

Complete the first-step housing application through Google Forms. After you submit, you’ll see confirmation that it was received. BAL will review your application and contact you about fit, next steps, and availability. Applying does not guarantee admission or a housing space.

Please leave out medical records, detailed background histories, children’s names, identification documents, and other sensitive records. We’ll arrange any additional intake directly.

Listing a sponsor, referral source, or service provider on an application does not by itself give BAL permission to contact them. Any needed authorization is handled separately, as appropriate.

LET’S START WITH HELLO

Prepare a brief introduction, then open it in your email app to send to Tameka. This website does not submit your message. You’ll review and send it from your email app.

Please leave out sensitive personal, medical, or criminal history information. We’ll discuss individual circumstances directly.
