About United Caring Services

UCS is the only low-barrier homeless shelter and services agency in Evansville that operates 5 full-time programs (one seasonal) for men, women, and children 365 days a year. Our programs provide opportunities to touch the lives of our guests in the various stages of relief, recovery, and restoration.

In 2023, our staff and volunteers served an average of 175 guests a day by providing meals, safety & shelter, health & hygiene items, clothing & survival items, showers, laundry services, recuperative care, and case management. We continually strive to meet the ever-changing needs of the homeless population in collaboration with other community agencies. This would not be possible without our generous donors and volunteers. We invite you to join our community of caring and to help touch the lives of homeless individuals in our area.
