Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Homeless & Housing, Homeless Centers, Human Services
Mission: We are a one-stop assistance center for people without housing, bringing together key social service agencies in one location to make it easier for people in our community to get the help they need. We provide emergency shelter (indoors) and an outdoor shelter pavilion for men and women. We also provide meals, day services, laundry, storage, a computer lab, a clothing closet, case management, AA/NA meetings, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and, most of all, a place people can call home.
Results: We opened our doors for day shelter on May 5, 2014 and served our first meal a month after. One year later, we had provided 117,675 social and supportive services to about 1,600 unduplicated clients. We are still a new facility, but we continue to cultivate relationships with service agencies all over Alachua County to one day be a one-stop resource center not just for the homeless, but for anyone experiencing poverty. Together with our community we are working to make Gainesville a better place to live for everyone.
