Background

Compassionate Care Sets Interfaith Works Homeless Services Program Apart

We work to meet our most vulnerable neighbors where they are, providing a feeling of safety and of family—the kind of care you’d want your own mother, brother, daughter, or friend to have.

At Interfaith Works Homeless Services Program, we celebrate that each of our guests is unique and we strive to create a welcoming environment that communicates respect and compassion.

We take a holistic approach to addressing homelessness by working with a broad and diverse coalition of faith communities, neighborhood groups, local and state governments, businesses, social service and healthcare entities, and law enforcement partners. Together, we provide emergency and long-term support. Our guests receive nightly shelter, side-by-side advocacy, connection to permanent housing, primary care, mental health and substance use treatment, and access to basic hygiene services.

For 45 years Interfaith Works has promoted social justice and peace through interfaith understanding and cooperation, with decades spent sheltering neighbors in need.
