Help is just a
step away
Our mission is to provide a seasonal emergency shelter for the members of our community who experience homelessness and to connect them with resources that empower them to be successful and self-sufficient.
Quick Resources
The shelter is NOW OPEN for 2023-24
As a organization, our goal is to meet the needs of those in need and to understand the larger causes of poverty and homelessness within our community.
We provide shelter and assistance to those who are struggling in order to help them become independent and promote a healthy and sustainable way of life.
We believe that everyone deserves a safe place to call home, and we are committed to working toward that goal. By providing shelter and support, we hope to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.
