Support for Youth Experiencing Homelessness

For youth experiencing homelessness, Oasis offers more than a roof over their heads—it offers a fresh start. Our permanent supportive housing program is designed for ages 18–24 who are ready to take the next step toward independence but need care and a safe, stable environment.

Support includes:

  • Personalized case management

  • Life skills coaching (budgeting, cooking, daily routines, etc.)

  • Access to wraparound services tailored to individual needs

  • Support with education and employment goals

To be a part of our Oasis Program, you must be between 18–24 years old and currently experiencing homelessness in the Memphis or Northwest Tennessee areas. Getting started involves a referral through your local Continuum of Care (CoC). If you’re not sure where to begin, that’s okay! We're here to help.

Support for Men, Women, and Children Fleeing Domestic Violence

We are dedicated to supporting individuals and families impacted by domestic violence as they work toward healing, independence, and long-term stability. Through the Oasis Program, we provide safe, stable housing and person-centered support designed to meet each individual’s needs and goals.

Support includes:

  • Safe, stable housing through short-term rental assistance

  • Personalized case management and connection to community resources

  • Trauma-informed, compassionate guidance

To receive support, you must live in the Northwest Tennessee area, be fleeing domestic violence and in need of immediate assistance and/or have a history of experiencing domestic violence. You can get started by contacting SJCS directly or calling the crisis hotline at 1-800-273-8712 for next steps. If you’re unsure where to start, that’s okay! We're here to help.
