Through partnerships with all sectors of the community, the Center offers comprehensive services such as medical care, counseling, education and job training as steps in a long-term interventionary model. In a socio-political climate that seems to avoid dealing with the problem of homelessness in a compassionate yet effective way, the Center’s service model has been nationally heralded by representatives of both major political parties. In addition to serving a growing local population of homeless individuals and families, the Center strives to help communities across the nation by serving as a model. In order to truly address the issues surrounding homelessness, effective methods must be replicable and possible to achieve, regardless of locale. The Center for the Homeless strives to live out its threefold mission to:

In all, more than sixteen local service providers, twenty-five corporate sponsors, four thousand volunteers and countless churches and benefactors help to provide a full range of services to the 2,500 people per year seeking refuge and assistance at the Center. |
