Referral partners
Partner With Kindred
Kindred works with organizations and professionals helping individuals find stable housing options. We value referral relationships built on communication, trust, and helping people find the right living environment. We operate in Broome County, New York.
What they arrive to
A comfortable, well-managed home
A furnished bedroom — private or shared, depending on the home — common areas that are looked after, and clear expectations reviewed with them before they move in.
Comfortable homes
Thoughtfully prepared homes, designed to give residents a comfortable place to live.
Furnished spaces
Bedrooms and common areas arrive furnished and stocked, so moving into a new home is simpler.
Clear expectations
Successful communities are built on respect, communication, and shared responsibility.
Professional management
We focus on well-managed, organized homes and a consistent resident experience.
The full list is set out on our homepage. Shared living works best when residents understand and respect community expectations. Detailed expectations are reviewed during the application process, so nothing about the home comes as a surprise later.
Working with us
What you can expect from a referral
We give you a straight answer
We come back to you either way, including a no, so the person you are placing is not waiting on an outcome you cannot report.
We move as fast as we can
We do not quote a timeline we cannot keep, and we do not sit on a referral either. Getting someone housed quickly is the point of the work, not a favor.
One process, one contact
The same steps for every referral, and a named person on our side for the placement rather than a general inbox.
It is written down
The home, the room, the move-in date and the rate are agreed in writing before anyone commits to anything.
They arrive as a resident
Not as a placement and not as a file. A furnished home, a household to be part of, and the same experience as everybody else living there.
Expectations are reviewed directly
We go through community expectations with the person themselves, so nobody arrives having agreed to something they had not heard.
Please do not send us case files
We are a housing operator, not a clinical or care provider. We have nowhere appropriate to hold an assessment, a treatment plan, a medication list or a diagnosis, and holding one would create a record about the person you are placing that serves nobody — least of all them.
If a document arrives that we should not have, we will tell you and ask you to resend without it.
What we do need
- Who you are and which organization you are with
- Roughly when housing is needed, and for how long
- Which community you think fits
- How the rent would be funded — benefit income is welcome, and worth mentioning early
- Any accommodation that affects whether a home is suitable — a ground-floor room, step-free access, an allergy in a shared kitchen
What we do not
- Diagnoses, medication or treatment history
- Clinical assessments or care plans
- Case notes or progress reports
- Anything you would not be comfortable putting in an email
