What To Expect At The Shelter
Our shelters have dormitory-styled rooms with bunk beds, so they are intended to be a shared space. Besides the sleeping rooms, the shelters have a common dining area, living room, and outdoor areas for recreation. A full-time cook is on staff to provide two hot meals each day, and breakfast is a serve-yourself cold meal. Clients can stay at our shelter for up to 45 days.
