RESIDENT STEWARD PROGRAM

The Resident Steward Program is a key initiative within Springboard Delaware's Low Barrier Navigation Centers (LBNCs) that empowers residents by involving them in the daily operation, safety, and upkeep of the centers. Through this program, residents take on active roles in maintaining common areas, engaging in gardening projects, monitoring safety, and responding to emergencies. In return, they receive stipends, rent credits, and opportunities for skill development.

Selection as a Resident Steward is based on demonstrated reliability, a commitment to sobriety, and an active engagement in weekly program hours, all of which align with a participant’s broader goals for achieving permanent housing. The program emphasizes mutual support, regular community meetings, and feedback mechanisms, ensuring that residents are integral to the operation and culture of the LBNCs.
