Moore Place
Permanent Supportive Housing for Chronically Homeless People
The Urban Ministry Center (UMC) along with community partner, David Furman and Centro City Works, plan to build Charlotte’s first Housing First community for Charlotte’s chronically homeless. Modeled after successful communities across the country, we will develop Moore Place with 85 efficiency apartments with on-site case management and 24-hour security for chronically homeless men and women. This will be the only option in Charlotte for chronically homeless women and a cornerstone piece of Charlotte-Mecklenburg’s Ten-Year Plan to End Homelessness.
