Shelter
Families in the Shelter Program stay overnight at local faith congregations, moving every Sunday or every other Sunday to a new location. Each overnight location is staffed by trained volunteers with 24-hour support from the Family Promise of Greater Denver staff. Each family has their own space at the congregation for sleeping and storing their belongings. Additionally, families receive help with transportation, access to showers and laundry facilities, and individualized case management and housing navigation.
