Shelter
Families in the Shelter Program stay overnight at local faith congregations, moving every 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 three meals a day, help with transportation, access to showers and laundry facilities, and individualized case management and housing navigation.
Our Shelter is currently full, to get on our Shelter Waitlist please call the Connection Center at 303-295-3366 to complete an intake and get on the waitlist.
We are unable to accept walk-ins.
Transportation Assistance
We can assist families with one-time transportation assistance (RTD tickets or gas card) of up to $50.
To receive help, you must be literally homeless (staying outside, in your car, a shelter, or motel paid for by agency) OR at risk of homelessness.
To request that assistance, please fill out the form below.
Staying with Family or Friends or Hotel you pay for?
Depending on your situation, we may be able to assist you while you stay with family or friends by supporting your household with a bill, money for groceries, transportation assistance, or other limited financial assistance to keep your family in a safe situation.
