SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The Heartland House in Sioux Falls offers transitional housing for homeless families with children.
Director Tammie Denning says families must commit to a self-sufficiency plan.
Denning says caseworkers help families with financial planning and budgeting among other household skills. She says it's easy to give somebody money just to go and get an apartment. But Heartland House teaches families how to be successful on their own in an apartment.
“Give From the Heart” fundraiser, supporting Heartland House families in need, is next Thursday at the Hilton Garden Inn.
