Programs & Facilities / Family Shelter

The Family Shelter will be replaced by Adam's Square in the coming months. Please contact us with any questions.

The Family Shelter is a 71 bed facility providing emergency housing for families and single women. Our Family Life Café feeds three meals a day plus evening snacks in a cheerful and warm dining atmosphere.

Along with the basic essentials, of food, clothing, shelter, and laundry facilities, we offer loving accountability that builds lives for a more successful future. Our case managers help bring stability and resources for clients to transition into housing and jobs.

Classes are available for basic adult education, inspiration, and vital life skills such as finance, parenting, nutrition, and cooking. We offer daily encouragement through counseling, spiritual guidance and assurance of hope.

Our youth department provides an exciting variety of activities for children and teens. We offer fun movie nights for families. We frequently celebrate with delightful gift giveaways, music and flowers. Laughter is a beautiful sound that can often be heard throughout our facility, representing the joy of healing and renewal. Many of the men, women and children we serve, move toward a better life and brighter future.
