Our programs and services focus on eliminating hunger and homelessness and are designed to help people solve their crises and build stability in an environment in which compassion inspires dignity and hope.
About
The homeless response center/shelter program/community kitchen/food pantry provides outreach services, emergency shelter, food and support. The organization operated shelters for men, women and families through December 2018 after which it discontinued shelter operations in favor of providing services to help individuals & families find & keep permanent housing through a homeless response center team that conducts outreach, intake, case management & housing placement in conjunction with existing short-term rapid rehousing & supportive housing programs. There is also a community kitchen serving two meals a day (lunch & dinner), and a food pantry to provide basic needs to those who struggle to make ends meet. Outreach and information/referral services are also made available to users of the pantry & kitchen services.
