  Allison Rice, Vice President of Program Operations, said that the focus of Work/Incentive 24 is to provide clients with intensive case management and daily structure not just a place to drop in for mail or a phone call.
  
  "What Work/Incentive 24 will do is to allow those who are sleeping at NOAH to remain during the day to pursue permanent housing and job opportunities without having to leave home base, walk the streets, or go to hospitable site.NOAH staff will provide space, resources and case management services which allow people to more quickly achieve housing and employment independence.NOAH will not be duplicating any other organizations' efforts to provide a place to go during the day such as the Salvation Army and Baybridge.
  
  "NOAH will also stay open on any day when there is no alternative, to provide a safe warm place for homeless individuals to go.This includes, but is not limited to, weekends and holidays," Rice said.

  Allison Rice of Housing Assistance Corp. in Hyannis said her agency sends parents from its five family shelters to A Baby Center for supplies.She said the majority of the approximately 100 children living in HAC's shelter programs are under the age of 2.
  
  A Baby Center serves children through 2-year-olds.Women who are at least seven months pregnant can also go to the center for layette items, bassinets and cradles.
  
  "Right now we are having a lot more of the younger parents who are experiencing a total inability to afford any sort of housing," Rice said."It's primarily the huge gap between wages and rent.More than half of our families in shelter are working.When families become homeless it's hard for them to hold onto the material items they had."
  
  HAC also sends families who earn too much money to qualify for free emergency shelter to A Baby Center so the families can save a little more money for rent.

  "We have turned away - and this is shameful - we have had to turn away 100 people in the last two months," Allison Rice, vice president of the Housing Assistance Corp. of Cape Cod, said yesterday.
  
  The nonprofit and other homelessness-prevention groups are seeing an increased demand for such help as rent subsidies, emergency shelter, food and fuel.
  
  In 2008, HAC distributed $952,000 to prevent homelessness on the Cape and Islands. Through April this year, HAC has already spent $998,000 because of the poor economy, Rice said at a summit about homelessness at the Church of the Holy Spirit in Orleans. She was talking to about 33 advocates for the homeless who help run programs across the Cape.
  ...
  The voucher program is a cheaper way than shelters to fight homelessness, said Hayes and Rice, who are worried about the impact on renters, as well as landlords who count on the rent.
  ...
  "For a family to be in a shelter on the Cape costs $4,920 a month," Rice said.
  ...
  Unfortunately, the state program that helped Ellison now only provides rental subsidies for two months, not a full year, Rice said.
