Throughout the temporary housing period, our team will assist you in finding a suitable long-term housing solution. This may involve locating a suitable rental apartment or a supported housing facility. 

Clients of the Hietaniemenkatu Service Centre can apply for temporary housing through the service centre. Adult social work clients can apply for it through their designated adult social worker.
