Helping You to Help Yourself
The Outreach Department has two main programs -
The Homeless Shelter & The Self-sufficiency Program
The Homeless Shelter exists to help stabilize families by providing a safe living environment. Housing is the first and most important necessity to secure before clients can improve their situations. Clients may stay in the shelter on a temporary basis while the Outreach staff helps them secure more permanent housing.
The Self-sufficiency Program utilizes intensive case management, home inspections, and group discussions to help clients develop the skills and attitude necessary for independence. This valuable program helps people become self-sufficient, thus reducing the likelihood that they will need future assistance.
