If you are experiencing a housing crisis, call 757-587-4202
The ForKids Housing Crisis Hotline is the central point of contact for all persons experiencing a housing crisis throughout Southeastern Virginia.
Through the Hotline, we connect individuals in crisis to our community’s extended network of resources for assistance and to prevent them from falling into homelessness whenever possible. The Hotline also allows us to collect an enormous amount of data about the homeless population in our region; armed with more knowledge about their specific needs, we are now better equipped to help move these families towards stability.
The Hotline covers 14 cities in Southeastern Virginia. The growing call volume reflects both the level of housing instability in Hampton Roads and the Hotline's growing role as a critical connector between households and hundreds of vital community resources.
Consistent Support
During the period of July 1, 2020 – June 30, 2021, the ForKids Regional Housing Crisis Hotline received over 58,000 calls from 29,000 households.
