There is also a community room for projects, gathering, and online research with added kitchen appliances and a full library.
A Few Things to Know
-
Safety is our number one priority. That means background checks for everyone (staff included), an in-person interview so you and the Bayside Housing Manager can explore if it's a good fit, there's security staff and a camera system, Covid-19 safety processes, a door to lock behind you at night as well as a caring staff.
-
Housing agreements are for up to 28 days at a time. Our Housing Manager will consider your personal situation and factors too numerous to list here; the process will be explained in your initial interview. We are here to help but your engagement in seeking permanent housing is an important factor.

Priority is given to seniors, veterans, and people in the workforce who need housing in order to retain employment. Your safety is always a powerful consideration.
