Our Facilities

During Your Stay with us

During your stay at our shelter, we provide you with essential services to help you get back on your feet. You will receive three meals and a snack every day. We also offer linen exchange, so you can have fresh bedding and towels.

Our dayroom is equipped with a television, giving you the opportunity to relax. In addition, we provide transportation on our shelter bus to various locations, including housing and employment opportunities. You can also use the bus to access services such as the Board of Social Services, the Pharmacy, Social Security Administration Office, Complete Care, Board of Education, and Police Departments for low-income background checks.

We understand that having access to a laundry facility is crucial, especially when you are trying to find employment and secure housing. That’s why we also provide transportation to the laundromat so that you can take care of your personal hygiene needs. We want to make your stay as comfortable as possible, and we are here to support you every step of the way.
