The Day Shelter is a service ministry open to men and women who are currently homeless. Through our Day Shelter we provide service to over 200 homeless guests per day and nearly 60,000 individual visits per year. Our guests are provided a drug free, safe environment in which they may access our laundry room, showers, storage room, mail and phone services, or just enjoy some hot coffee and a light breakfast. Additionally, our guests may receive assistance with employment, housing, physical and mental health referrals, as well as help with disability and other applications. We want to help our guests to become more employable and to gain permanent housing.
