Our Goal Is To Keep Them Strong, Secure and Safe

 

 

Breaking the Cycle

Let’s End Homelessness Together. As the only homeless shelter for intact families and the largest homeless shelter for women and children in the metro area, we are dedicated to breaking the cycle of homelessness while keeping families together through coordinated, family-centered support and services.

Since 2007, NOWCS has served more than 4,500 parents and children recovering from homelessness and less than 2% of the people NOWCS has served have returned to homelessness.

My two girls and I are very grateful and thankful for our room. We’re safe, comfortable, and most of all, together.
