Building and managing homes for some of Central Ohio's most vulnerable people.
About us
People struggling with mental illness, addiction, or homelessness need a source of stability. For more than 30 years, Community Housing Network has been that source. We start with housing, because it enables our residents to feel safe, maybe for the first time in a long while. It shows them we value their resilience and believe in their potential. But our work isn't just housing. It's building. We build a support system to help people overcome crises and obstacles. We build a network of services and partners to address every need. We build a safety net that empowers residents to move forward, knowing we have their back. We build a sense of belonging and community. Above all at Community Housing Network, we make sure people have options and opportunities. With us, they have more than a place to stay; they have a place to truly live.

We’re incredibly grateful for the amazing volunteers who recently took time from their busy schedules to make a difference for CHN residents! 💓 🌼🍅 Besa staff and volunteer leaders planted flowers and veggies at Terrace Place Apartments and decorated flowerpots. Thanks to their hard work, CHN residents can now enjoy fresh veggies and beautiful blooms both outside and in their apartments. 🌻🏡 🍓🥒🍅 Besa staff and volunteers from The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center set up raised garden beds at Marsh Brook Place. Residents had a fantastic time decorating the beds and are excited to nurture the plants as they grow, looking forward to enjoying the fruits of their labor in the coming weeks. A special thank you to Jessica Pfister for building the raised beds and donating soil, plants, and paint supplies. 🖌 🌿 The Houston Family joined residents at East Fifth Avenue Apartments to pull weeds and beautify the courtyard area to create a peaceful space to relax outdoors. 💚 #VolunteerAppreciation #CommunitySupport #UrbanGardening #CHNVolunteers #Besa #OSUWexnerMedicalCenter #CommunityHousingNetwork #GardeningForGood #MakingADifference

Some of CHN's leaders attended the Columbus Metropolitan Club (CMC) panel today focused on Solving Ohio's Mental Health Crisis featuring ADAMH Board of Franklin County CEO Erika Clark Jones, Ohio Department of Mental Health & Addiction Services Director LeeAnn Cornyn, Healing Without Limits Counseling and Consulting, LLC CEO Andriel Ugbomeh, and PrimaryOne Health CEO Charleta B. Tavares. Topics included defining mental health, sharing information about some of the most commonly diagnosed mental illnesses, local efforts to expand access to mental health services, information about available resources for individuals and employers, and the importance of reducing stigmas surrounding mental health, and more. Thank you to CMC and the participating panelists for this informative forum.

Ohio’s mental healthcare needs are as acute as they’ve ever been, but Ohioans’ struggle with mental health has also achieved a new and higher level of visibility, thanks to the persistent dedication of mental health advocates. Mental health struggles are touching every part of Ohio’s population: children, adults, employers, and employees, and those of any age wrestling with addiction or thoughts of suicide. Ohio’s leaders in the field have also made clear that mental health issues aren’t merely healthcare issues, they’re workforce development issues: the state’s economy can’t thrive if the mental health needs of its workers and their families aren’t addressed and supported. Tellingly, a state official reported hearing most often from Ohio’s mothers and sheriffs: two groups both dealing daily with the effects of fellow Ohioans struggling with mental health needs. There is clearly hope: national studies show that 3 of 4 people who experience addiction eventually recover, and up to 33% of people living with serious mental illness and 67% of adults with mild to moderate mental illness experience partial to full recovery over time. And Ohio is talking more about mental health than ever before, with the stigma of mental illness slowly evaporating, thanks to a changing public willingness to talk openly about mental illness. Some 70% of companies have also introduced or enhanced their well-being benefits for their employees. With an expert panel of passionate leaders, we unpack the state of mental health in Ohio for a look at how leaders are assessing the mental health of Ohioans and working to create healthier children, employees, and families. Featuring: Andriel Ugbomeh, CEO, Healing Without Limits Counseling & Consulting Erika Clark Jones, CEO, Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Board of Franklin County (ADAMH) And LeeAnne Cornyn, Director, Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services The host is Charleta B. Tavares, Chief Executive Officer, PrimaryOne Health The presenting sponsors of CMC’s Optimal Health Series are OhioHealth, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, and Nationwide Children's Hospital. This forum was sponsored by Cardinal Health. The livestream presenting sponsor was The Center for Human Kindness at The Columbus Foundation. The livestream partner was The Columbus Dispatch. It was supported by The Ellis. This forum was recorded before a live audience at The Ellis in Columbus, Ohio's historic Italian Village on May 15, 2024. Please note this CMC forum contains a conversation about suicide. If you or someone you love is struggling with mental health or addiction, please contact the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by calling 988.
