Many homeless shelters serve only a specific demographic. For example, domestic abuse, addiction recovery, halfway houses, veterans, etc. While these ministries are absolutely vital, there are very few that allow women and children, so a homeless family has to be separated. Furthermore to our knowledge there are few shelters for single fathers and none close by.
At The Shelter Inc. we believe in taking a different approach. We do not separate families, we welcome single dads/moms and their kids, as well as whole families. We will also help those who do fit into the aforementioned criteria. However, if there is a ministry out there better equipped to help you than we are, we will help you find those resources.
