We often receive requests from individuals and groups who want to help our clients with needed essentials. As a housing-focused shelter, we encourage our supporters to prepare items that can welcome our clients home when they find housing.
Kits can be dropped off to our Volunteer Coordinator. Email: [email protected] or call (707) 765-6530.
Thank you for all of your help in welcoming our clients home.

All items can fit into a vertical laundry hamper (see photo).
