El Camino Homeless Organization

ECHO is North County’s only homeless shelter serving all of the communities in North San Luis Obispo County. ECHO is a 50-bed transitional shelter helping families and individuals find permanent housing within three months of entering ECHO. ECHO provides case management services to the homeless, helping them create an action plan, live with new behaviors, find a job, and locate a permanent home. Other social service agencies depend on ECHO. In addition, ECHO serves up to 80 dinners each evening for anyone who is hungry thanks to our network of dedicated volunteers.
