Permanent Supportive Housing
We offer shelter, food, clothing, medical and mental health care, case management, drug counseling, entitlement assistance, education, job training, referrals and housing services.
The Street Outreach Program reaches individuals who for a variety of reasons do not come to the shelter. They are provided with blankets, food and water, and opportunities to engage in services.
The Education and Employment Program provides job training, computer classes, resume preparation and other services for individuals looking for work. Workshops and seminars are offered for those seeking a wide array of employment opportunities.
The Emergency Shelter is open seasonally for seven months from mid-October through mid-May from 4 p.m. to 8 a.m. Since its inception, Immaculate Conception has operated and will continue to operate as a wet shelter, meaning that we accept homeless people who are actively using alcohol/drugs. We do this because we recognize that a large percentage of the homeless population suffers from addiction and we feel that by letting people in the door, we provide a safe haven, and a place to begin a path to recovery.
Some of the most vulnerable population in the city have access to a variety of services including showers, laundry, storage space, and an opportunity to connect with Immaculates' case management staff who work with individuals to obtain benefits, medical care, housing and an array of other services. |

We offer services in four program components within the Continuum of Care for individuals experiencing homelessness. |
