Mental Health for our homeless is a major challenge effecting so many of our friends who are out on the streets day after day, year after year.It is extremely challenging to reach guest with severe mental illness but treatment is crucial for their well-being.On the streets, treatment isn't a high priority when you're simply trying to survive.In the evening many of our most mentally ill come to Interfaith Sanctuary Shelter to receive shelter and a warm meal but once the doors open in the morning they will have to struggle another day, out on the street, not getting the support they really need.

Not anymore! We have officially kicked off Project Well-Being, a program designed first to bring stability then well-being for our guests who need a safe place to be during the day. Our guests attend mindful workshops, are working on their dream boards, head off on different adventures with our Project Well-Being Team, enjoy lunchtime and a nap at the shelter each day and attend daily support groups. We will continue to add resources and programming to our participants as we learn more about what is needed and what is available!

As always, we could use your help! We would love to get our community involved in the early development of this program. Would you like to help mentor a guest, provide a work shop or art class, help present a motivational program? Another great way to connect is bring lunch makings in for the group and join them in food preparation and sharing a meal.
