BIG thanks to Families in Transition, for providing a safe place to eat, sleep and shower. In addition to, case management is also provided which helps with navigating community resources and low income housing:)

Wonderful, very helpful staff! Shout out to Selah, Melony and caseworker, Jenn! Shelters suck in general but I'd definitely recommend New Horizons if you're in need of their services!

They do great work with the homeless community providing shelter, food, and other types of assistance. I have had to stand in the food pantry line on a few occasions and the staff and volunteers never look down on you or make you feel inferior for any reason. They have a good system that makes the process easy, secure, and speedy. Since they built the indoor waiting area, people no longer have to wait in line outside during rain, sleet, snow, cold, hot, or other severe weather conditions. It's a blessing to have them in our city helping the people in need.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I have a full size basement full of household items and was wondering if there is a need for these things.

Kathleen McGee | Aug 28, 2018
Kelley Maginnis | Aug 28, 2018

I agree with the others: call them first. It's very likely that they can use what you have. If they can't, they know who can.

How does the homeless shelter work? So I have to call, or is there a way to do it online?

As of right now they take new admissions on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays between 6pm and 7pm. As this policy will likely change in the future you may want to call first, if able, to verify the current policy.

When is the Thanksgiving baskets and christmas sign up this year please

Curtis Bragdon | Aug 28, 2019

As long as it's a state issued ID

I know someone who received food last month but was told when they came back they have to provide proof of income. This personal has not worked this year and has no job. How are they suppose to meet those qualifications to get food assistance?

Jackie Grant | Aug 28, 2019
Pondering Paisley | Aug 28, 2019

I believe Mr Caron answered your question. I would add if they have anyone they see in social services: case manager, parole officer, etc. could write a note. If they are not engaged in social services, I would strongly recommend they request to see a case manager or social worker right at New Horizons. S/he may qualify for housing etc. IF the person has fears about engaging social services(I know this can be the case sometimes, might I suggest they seek food assistance at "Feed the Children" services. They are at the JFK Coliseum parking lot every Saturday rain or shine & ask only for a small donation *if* you can afford it. Even a penny is accepted. They are a faith-based organization & ask for no IDs or income verification, just if the food is for 1 or more. They are committed to feeding all God's 'children' - that includes adults. Good luck.

Is it true the shelter will be closed for 2 months
