Our Background
Housing Support Built Around Dignity
Since 1988, ICAN Housing has served people experiencing homelessness in Stark County, including many who struggle with mental illness and substance use disorders. The agency was formed as the mental health field moved away from institutional care and toward community integration.
ICAN began with housing and housing support services. Today, the agency provides outreach, workforce development, permanent supportive housing, affordable housing, and subsidized housing for individuals and families across the community.
Most participants come from shelters or the street. ICAN Housing builds trust through outreach, connects people to community resources, and helps them take practical steps toward housing stability.
