  • About these homes: Open to COTS graduates, these privately-owned homes are self-managed, clean and sober, and democratically run through cooperative decision-making. A COTS Manager selects the tenants, sets up the furnishings, and facilitates the lease process between owner and tenants. Tenants pay rent directly to the owner and are responsible for the smooth operation of the home. COTS will intervene only when necessary, to resolve exits and refer eligible tenants to fill vacancies.
  • Expansion plans: Our plan is to expand this program to over 50 homes serving 200 residents in the next five years! If you have rental property and are interested in becoming an Integrity House landlord, .

From Integrity House landlords

"We are happy to be able to help COTS graduates just by giving them the same opportunity anyone else would have. We never have a moment's worry and we are especially pleased that our tenants love the house and have made it their home." - Karen Saunders

"I believe in second chances. I have special feelings for people in need who are trying to rebuild and improve their lives. I'm in a position to offer affordable rent in exchange for great tenants who take a lot of pride in being under a roof of their own." - Dot Henderson
