History
Community Support Services is a division of Ottawa County Transitional Housing, Inc. (OCTHI). OCTHI started as a community based organization in 1992 and became incorporated in 1994.
Our organization is a Private, Non-Profit as classified under the IRS as a 501 (c)(3).
Its original purpose was to provide support to women who were victims of domestic violence. Ruth Ann Belknap, the founder, along with volunteers offered support groups and counseling to the clientele. Ruth Ann and the board had an opportunity to partner with WSOS to provide housing to women in need. This changed our mission slightly, not only would we serve women in domestic violence situations but those that were in economic need. We received funding through the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through a state program administered by the Ohio Department of Development.
Transitional Housing allows women to stay at the house for up to two (2) years. The home is able to accommodate six (6) women at any one time in addition to nine (9) children however the children must be with a parent.
