"Helping people help themselves"

The Samaritan Center is a morning drop-in center for the homeless. Here they can take a shower, get clean clothes, have something to eat, make phone calls, receive mail and messages. Through outreach programs provided at the Center, they have access to public heath nurses, abuse counseling, job recruitment, social workers and more. The Center is here to help the homeless help themselves to become productive members of the community.

Thank you for your support!
