One of the SH sites offers a 2 year transitional program as a bridge often from residential treatment to independent living. Residents would be homeless or at risk of being homeless without the daily resources Conard House provides. These resources extend over and above affordable housing.Conard House offers Money Management and Client Advocacy Services to more than 1,100 adults at two locations in the South of Market neighborhood. Money Management Services provide personal finance guidance by directly disbursing client funds for rent, food, clothing and personal needs, and counseling clients on the most effective ways to stretch their very limited resources. Clients develop a budget and disbursement schedule with their case managers, along with the skills that provide an extraordinary step to living an independent life.Conard House offers one-on-one computer and internet training courses to residents.
