About the Center

Welcome to the 23rd year of the Center for the Homeless.  The Center has served more than 45,000 men, women and children by linking them with the programs, agencies and people who can help them break the cycle of homelessness. Partnerships have been forged and fostered to allow us to offer the best services to the people who need them the most.
