Homelessness presents individuals with many hurdles to overcome on the path towards self-sufficiency and Cornerstone Foundation
Transitional Center offers comprehensive services to combat these challenges.
Cornerstone Foundation Transitional Center will work toward the elimination of homelessness and for the achievement of
equal opportunity and parity for homeless men, homeless veterans, and men whose lives have been impacted by dependence on
drugs and/or alcohol, unidentified mental health challenges, inconsistent work histories, limited education and poor healthcare
habits. Cornerstone Foundation Transitional Center will conduct a wide range of direct services, advocacy, and research activities
from six programmatic departments: Employment; Counseling & Training; Education; Advocacy; Social Services; Management
Information Systems; Facilities and Support Services.
Our goal is to provide a structured short term, sober living environment for men with a history of substance abuse and
alcohol addiction. The men will move toward self-sufficiency and lay the groundwork for successful reintegration into the
community. The services we provide will let us reach out to those around us by bringing services to individuals and the community
by meeting people where they are geographically, emotionally and physically, facilitating linkage to care, engaging with individuals,
assessing eligibility for treatment or other services, making referrals to appropriate services, linking individuals through
warm hand-offs, creating a safe, open friendly space regardless of setting and building community partnerships.
If we are to succeed in addressing this complicated issue, then it will take all of us to effectively collaborate together,
thus improving the lives of those we touch and enhancing our overall communities now and in the future.
Sincerely,
Reverend Jeffrey B. Clemons, MS,CADC,CODP
