St. Louis funds emergency, bridge, and transitional housing through the Continuum of Care and Department of Human Services, prioritizing intake by vulnerability, with rules covering length of stay, sobriety, and case-management participation.
The St. Louis City Continuum of Care, in partnership with the Department of Human Services, funds a network of emergency shelters, bridge housing, transitional housing, and rapid re-housing. Intake is prioritized through coordinated entry and the VI-SPDAT vulnerability assessment rather than first-come, first-served. Bridge housing, often for individuals waiting on permanent supportive housing, typically allows stays of 90 days to a year with case management, though many newer projects are low-barrier and do not require sobriety. Programs follow HUD CoC rules, and grievance procedures protect residents from arbitrary discharge during their authorized stay.
Programs may discharge residents for documented violence, sustained nonparticipation, or significant rule breaches, but discharges must follow program grievance procedures and HUD CoC standards governing notice and appeal.
