Passmores House

Passmores House, run by VIA (Volunteers in Action), provides assisted living for those facing homelessness in Essex. This center creates a secure and nurturing environment where residents can utilize various services designed to meet their urgent requirements and facilitate their journey toward self-sufficiency. Available services may encompass housing assistance, help in obtaining healthcare and other resources, training in essential life skills, and guidance in securing job or educational opportunities. The primary aim of Passmores House is to enable individuals to restore their lives and move toward stable, independent living arrangements.

This center focuses on addressing substance use issues, aiding individuals in achieving stability, developing strategies to prevent relapse, and accessing empathetic support services.

At Passmores House, we understand that the journey towards independent living often requires a flexible approach to financial support. While our primary focus is to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals experiencing homelessness, we also recognize the importance of facilitating access to various payment options and insurance policies for our residents. We accept a range of funding sources, including government assistance programs and charitable grants, which may cover the costs associated with housing and supportive services. Our team is committed to working closely with individuals to explore their eligibility for these programs and assist in navigating the application processes. In addition, for residents with private insurance, we encourage individuals to check with their insurance provider to determine what services may be covered related to housing support, healthcare access, and life skills training. We are ready to coordinate with insurance companies to help our residents maximize their benefits. At Passmores House, we strive to ensure that financial barriers do not impede access to the vital services that support the journey toward independence. Our dedicated staff is here to provide guidance and assistance, empowering individuals to rebuild their lives with the necessary resources and support.
