You do not need paperwork ready to start. The first step is a conversation.

Not an emergency shelter
If you need somewhere tonight, see resource referrals or call 211.
What we will not ask you to do
You will not be asked to prove you deserve support, explain choices you have made, or commit to goals you did not choose. Dignity is not conditional here.
The process
Four steps.
Send an inquiry
Use the form below, call, or ask a partner agency to refer you. No documents needed yet.
A conversation
Within 7-14 business days, someone reaches out to talk through your situation and whether this program fits. If it does not, we help you look at other options.
Application and intake
We complete the application together and walk through what living here involves — cost, expectations, and what you can expect from us.
Move in
You settle in first. Planning starts once you have had time to breathe.
Start here
Make an inquiry.
Share only what you are comfortable sharing. What you send is confidential. Give us a call.

A note on safety
If someone else has access to your phone or email, give us a contact method that is safe for you and tell us when it is safe to reach you. Every page here has a Quick Exit button, and pressing Escape twice leaves the site immediately.
For referring partners
Referring a family?
Agencies, clinics, schools, congregations, and caseworkers can refer directly. Tell us what the family needs and how best to reach them.
