Clients receive about 90 days of shelter and basic needs resources, including meals, showers, personal hygiene kits, and laundry services.

They also work with a Rapid Rehousing Case Manager, who helps them develop a customized solution to overcome homelessness and achieve permanent stable housing.

We offer many other resources at the Family Shelter, including:

mental health and substance use counseling
Children’s Program and Learning Hour to help children keep up with schoolwork
healthy living and positive family dynamics resources
employment guidance and resume workshops
