Our mission is to provide temporary “Warming Centers” to unsheltered homeless individuals and families who are especially vulnerable in the cold weather.  HUD’s definition of “unsheltered homeless” applies to any individual or family “with a primary nighttime residence that is a public or private place not designed for or ordinarily used as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings, including a car, park, abandoned building, bus or train station, airport, or camping ground.” Unsheltered homeless individuals and families are among those with the most critical housing needs.  

Our second goal is to secure a permanent building for this population to stay for longer periods of time when the temperature remains low, take showers, change clothes, and provide resources.
