Housing Support Services

Safe and affordable housing is essential to building healthy families and communities. Our housing readiness services provide residents with the support they need to thrive and achieve self-sufficiency while maintaining a home of their own.

Home Sweet Home

Our mission is to create strong and sustainable communities by advocating for, developing, and managing affordable housing for low- and moderate-income individuals and families. We believe that safe, stable housing plays a vital role in improving quality of life and remain committed to providing residents with the support they need to maintain a home of their own.

CSET’s Housing Services Department administers both short-term assistance and long-term support to help Tulare County residents achieve housing stability and get back on their feet. Programs include:

  • First-Time Home Buyer Program

  • Permanent Supportive Housing

  • CalWORKs Housing Support Program

  • Financial Education Workshops

  • Fair Housing

Continuum Of Care

Fair Housing

We offer informational workshops on Fair Housing to help individuals learn more about their rights and understand how to report housing discrimination in California.
