Transitional Shelter Programs
We Help Stabilize People.
Our transitional shelter programs help people of all genders break the cycle of life on the street. With the support of partnering agencies, our multidisciplinary team offers non-judgmental acceptance, compassion and care, and helps people:
- Connect with case managers
- Manage physical and mental health needs and addictions
- Develop life skills
Many of the people who enter Shepherds of Good Hope transitional shelters face barriers to accessing housing; it is our goal to assist them in transitioning into stable, permanent homes.
Shepherds of Good Hope currently operates seven transitional shelter programs:
