Housing programs openings available from Catholic Charities offer dignity, stability

Catholic Charities, Diocese of Venice, Inc., is pleased to announce the availability of affordable housing units across several Southwest Florida communities. These include single-family homes, duplexes, and triplexes in Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, and Englewood, as well as veteran housing in Sarasota County and designated senior and farmworker housing in Arcadia.

“We understand the pressures facing so many in our community from rising housing costs to economic uncertainty,” said Christopher Root, CEO of Catholic Charities, Diocese of Venice. “Through these housing programs, we are working to restore stability and dignity to those who need it most, while ensuring that essential members of our community, including veterans and farmworkers, are not left behind.”

All units are offered at below-market rental rates and are designed to provide a safe and stable environment for individuals and families in need. Some units are available for as low as $950 per month, making them ideal for working families and individuals rebuilding their lives. Catholic Charities encourages all eligible applicants to apply, as availability is limited.

Housing for Families

Affordable housing is available for working families and individuals and offers a clean, safe, and supportive environment. Units are ideal for parents with children, single professionals, and those working locally who may be facing housing insecurity due to rising rent costs. Some income restrictions do apply, in accordance with program guidelines, but many moderate-income households may qualify.

Veteran Housing in Sarasota County

Catholic Charities is honored to support the brave men and women who have served our country by offering designated housing units exclusively for veterans in Sarasota County. Veterans seeking housing through this program must provide proof of military service at the time of application.

Farmworker and Senior Housing in Arcadia

Affordable housing is available in Arcadia for seniors as well as families and individuals employed in agricultural work. These homes support area seniors and the vital workforce that sustains our region’s farming industry.
