About Hope And Rest Temporary Shelter

We are a community-based low-barrier organization partnering with our local Churches, Civic Organizations and Community Partners to provide a winter homeless shelter.

Read More

We believe everyone deserves a safe place to lay their head at night, a full belly to go to bed and not have to worry about freezing.


Our shelter is open 6pm-to 7am to adult men and women 18+, we also accept pets.


Join us for CNOY 2025 and help us keep our community safe, fed and warm.
