Sweet Beginnings

Thank you taking the time to visit us! Whether you were able to join us on Oct. 24, 2020 or are just now visiting this page, we are glad you are here.

We invite you to learn more about some of the Sweet Beginnings YOU have made possible – including a transformational change in our Shelter program!

We are learning so much….every…single…day. It’s now clear that ShelterCare can be the triage for those who are homeless and help individuals exit the cycle of homelessness for good. As a result, today our vision is bolder than ever before and we just have to share it with you!

Your support is moving individuals towards health and housing. You are actually TRANSFORMING our model of sheltering in this community….and it is making a huge difference!

Here are some key pieces that we shared at Sweet Beginnings.
