Shelter and Energy Assistance

Phone: 281-885-4531 

The Shelter and Energy Assistance program (SEA) has two components. One is to prevent homelessness by assisting families with rent or mortgage funds and energy-related issues. The second component is a comprehensive program assisting already homeless families with the transition to self-sufficiency.

The SEA program is funded by federal grants totaling $978,997.00, which benefited 6,736 people during the 2007-2008 fiscal year.   

NAM's Supportive Housing Program, funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), provides housing subsidies and supportive services to homeless families.

Because funding comes from several grant programs, staff members interview prospective clients to determine if they qualify for one of the available programs. Applicants must provide documentation related to identification, residency, income and ability to pay their next month's rent. 

NAM offers assistance with utility payments for Elderly and/or Disabled

In cooperation with Sheltering Arms Senior Services, NAM’s SEA Program registers applicants for Comprehensive Energy Assistance Program (CEAP). Funding for the year 2009 has ended. Please check back in March 2010 for announcements of 2010 funding.
