    CRBC receives and shares housing information through referrals from social workers, hospitals, housing authorities, 2-1-1, the Unite Us platform, and other community partners.<\/p>

    Referral partners may share CRBC listings with individuals they support; however, housing decisions and placements are made directly between the housing provider and the individual.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
