Our Emergency Housing program helps homeless and at-risk households during their transition from temporary to permanent housing. We assign a case manager to help you connect to community resources and find safe, stable housing. Our emergency shelter is free to income-eligible households, with a minimal fee for non-eligible households.

Through our walk-up window, we provide basic needs to unsheltered homeless as available.
