BETHANY HOUSE SERVICES
Provides comprehensive family-centered homelessness services, all of which are provided by staff trained in trauma-informed care and focused on empowering families to reach self-sufficiency.
Its holistic services—including prevention of homelessness, emergency shelter, housing programs, comprehensive case management, post shelter support, and permanent affordable rental housing—address a family’s current needs and seek to prevent repeat episodes of homelessness.
Volunteers benefit by enjoying a camaraderie with each other and with the Bethany House residents, and by knowing that they are helping in this way to do what the Lord told us, which is to share our time and treasure with others in need.
