Our Communities:
Family
Shelter &
Transitional Housing
| Imagine your family was suddenly left homeless, wondering where to turn to find help. Each day our American Red Cross Family Shelter and Transitional Housing programs work with people who have become homeless. The services include emergency shelter, housing, childcare, job skill training, life skills classes and other basic needs. In addition, we also provide opportunities for the children in our shelter through our teen center and weekly activities for smaller children. |
