Unity Shelter

Unity Shelter is the umbrella organization that includes programs that share its mission to "Provide Safe Shelter Through Collaborative Care". Programs such as The Mens Shelter, SafePlace, Room at the Inn and future programs that fit into Unity Shelter's vision. Each of these programs will have their own leadership team and staff; however, Unity Shelter will provide the overarching fiscal and operational leadership/management for each of the programs.

Unity shelter has a very specific mission to help provide housing for those in our community who have none. While a new organization, our leadership, the need, programs, volunteers, services & friends are not at all new to our area.

For decades, local religious institutions and volunteers have been providing the leadership, financial and operational support needed to run existing programs like the Mens Shelter, Room at the Inn & SafePlace. As the needs for affordable and transitional housing grew, it became clear that we needed to bring these disparate programs together into one organization to provide consistent leadership, leverage existing resources, expand/broaden fundraising efforts, raise awareness, share best practices and more.
