Program Services · Fee-for-Service Rates
Current program rates for A Circle of Love emergency housing and stabilization services. This page is intended for referral partners and sponsors coordinating a placement.
Primary Program
A comprehensive crisis-support service — not a room rental. The bundled rate is intentionally lower than purchasing these services individually.

The full package plus companion-animal accommodation and routine care.
Additional companion animal accommodation, subject to safety and space.
Safe temporary emergency housing, furnished sleeping accommodations, electricity, water, climate control, internet access, bedding, linens, towels, laundry access, basic household supplies, basic hygiene products, reasonable use of common areas, and general residential support during the stay.
Three meals per day, basic beverages, reasonable snacks, drinking water, basic food preparation and kitchen support, and basic hygiene and household necessities.
Initial emergency intake, immediate-needs assessment, housing-crisis assessment, basic stabilization planning, identification of priority needs, and general resource assessment.
May include case coordination, resource planning, general advocacy, agency communication, follow-up assistance, stabilization support, basic progress monitoring, and transition planning.
May include searching for longer-term housing, identifying shelters or transitional housing, contacting housing resources, landlords and programs, application assistance, referral coordination, placement support, exit planning, and transition support.
May include navigation or assistance related to SNAP, DHS programs, AHCCCS, SSI and SSDI resources, food assistance, utility assistance, community nonprofit programs, government resources, and local charitable assistance.
May include online applications, printing, scanning, document organization, basic ID and resource assistance, agency paperwork, housing and benefit applications, appointment coordination, and phone and internet access for essential needs.
Up to 10 local miles per day for routine essential trips — pharmacy, grocery needs, nearby appointments, housing resources, and benefits appointments. Additional mileage is billed separately.
A companion animal may be an important source of emotional support and stability during a housing crisis. Where safety allows, we keep people and their animals together.

Two Separate Payment Models
A Circle of Love keeps these strictly separate in its records, its invoices, and its public materials. Which one applies depends entirely on who is paying and why.
A company, agency, church, family member, or other third party pays A Circle of Love directly for emergency housing and stabilization services provided to a named client.
These payments are program service revenue and are invoiced as payment for services rendered.
They are not donations, gifts, sponsorship contributions, or tax-deductible charitable contributions, and A Circle of Love will not describe or receipt them as such.
Charitable gifts are made to A Circle of Love’s Emergency Housing Assistance Fund — an organization-controlled fund — rather than to any specific individual.
A Circle of Love retains full discretion and control over how those funds are applied across placements and program needs.
Donors cannot direct a gift to a named individual. Charitable receipting remains subject to the organization’s 501(c)(3) reinstatement status.
Reading an Invoice
A single placement may be covered by a third-party service payment, by charitable assistance from the fund, by a family contribution, or by some combination.
A Circle of Love may waive some or all charges when services are provided as charitable assistance. The published rate is not what every individual pays.
This distinction matters for impact reporting and charitable-service documentation, and it is why the two columns below are tracked separately.
| Program service value | $1,750 |
| Third-party service payment invoiced as fee-for-service | $1,000 |
| Charitable assistance applied from the Emergency Housing Assistance Fund | $750 |
| Client responsibility | $0 |
Illustrative only. Every placement is structured individually based on need, third-party payment, and available charitable resources.
Emergency housing is subject to available space, program capacity, safety considerations, appropriateness of placement, and available resources. Admission is not guaranteed.
Emergency housing is intended to be temporary and short-term. Extensions may depend on continued availability, capacity, individual circumstances, safety, stabilization needs, and progress toward transition or housing goals.
Clear check-in and checkout expectations are set at intake. An additional service day may be charged when a person remains beyond the agreed checkout time or when additional services are provided into another service day.
Clients follow reasonable safety and behavior expectations, including prohibitions on violence, threats, harassment, illegal activity, weapons, and conduct that jeopardizes staff, residents, volunteers, or property. Full terms are in the intake agreement.
A Circle of Love provides emergency housing and stabilization support. It does not provide skilled nursing, medical treatment, detoxification, psychiatric treatment, emergency medical care, or clinical behavioral-health treatment. For a medical or life-threatening emergency, contact 911.
Clients bringing a pet may be asked for the animal’s name, species, breed, vaccination history, temperament, behavioral concerns, feeding instructions, medications, veterinary information, and an emergency contact. Accommodation may be declined or discontinued where safety cannot reasonably be maintained.
Clients remain responsible for their personal belongings unless otherwise documented. Storage fees may apply to items left after checkout.
The daily package does not automatically include third-party costs such as veterinary care, prescriptions, medical costs, third-party hotel charges, application fees, security deposits, government fees, specialty supplies or transportation, rental trucks, tolls, parking, extraordinary cleaning, or major replacement items. These may be documented and charged at actual cost.
Contact A Circle of Love to discuss availability, immediate needs, sponsorship, and next steps. We will tell you quickly and honestly whether we have room.
