The Community Resource Center (CRC)
While our shelters provide a safe place to rest and meet immediate needs, the CRC offers a welcoming environment filled with resources and support for your long-term success.

Through partnerships with local ministries and organizations, we bring a wide range of services together under one roof—making it easier for you to get the help you need, all in one place.

Case Management
We’re Here to Help
The Community Navigators, stationed at the Community Resource Center, walk alongside shelter guests throughout their stay, meeting with them weekly to provide personalized support and guidance. They are also available to meet with community members who are seeking help. Navigators work to connect individuals to the right resources based on their unique needs, both within our facility and throughout the broader community. They help simplify what can often feel like an overwhelming system by assisting guests in navigating services such as housing, employment, healthcare, and other supports. With a signed release, they communicate directly with community partners to coordinate care and advocate on the guest’s behalf. Appointments are available both in person and by phone to ensure support is accessible and flexible.
