01What it does

What The Shelter does

Mission

The Shelter is a temporary homeless shelter for homeless women and their children. Its mission includes the creation of an ohana community that provides eligible participants with dignified housing, spiritual discipleship, career training, job placement, and social integration as well as compassionately provides help for physical needs, emotional and spiritual healing. Ministering to the heart is key to transforming lives.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. The Shelter helps the residents get back on their feet by providing classes to the mothers covering topics on financial management, parenting, anger management, exercise, health and nutrition, conflict resolution, general life skills, spiritual and professional development. The Shelter and its staff also provide housing case management for its current families/residents (the staff locate and help the residents/families apply for more permanent housing), financial case management (many residents need help with budgeting and they need help in saving their monies after they get a job), job skills training with the assistance of another organization, help obtain legal documents and help residents with legal processes, transportation for various appointments (doctor's visit, grocery shopping, etc), and assist the families whose children need to go to an individualized education plan (iep) and individualized family support ifsp).

Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
