About AM Housing, Inc.
To provide shelter, awaken hope, and honor dignity in every person who seeks comfort, support, or assistance through our programs in the NEMO area.
Housing insecurity is a very real issue in Kirksville. Adair County is the fifth poorest county in Missouri. The US Interagency Council on Homelessness states that 1.07% of the overall population in Missouri is homeless, which would translate to approximately 150-175 individuals locally.
AM Housing is actively engaged in fulfilling our goals for the immediate term, having recently purchased a house that is currently used for low-income rental.
The best way to combat housing insecurity is through relationship and rehabilitation. Our vision is to provide housing for individuals and families, not only on an emergency basis but while they are looking for a job and during the first few months of employment until they are able to rent an apartment of their own.
Many donors, churches, service clubs, corporate sponsors, and college students are a part of the solution. We need your help: spread the word, contribute financially, and let us know how you would like to volunteer your time. Thanks for any way that you can be a part of this much-needed service!
