My Experience Was The Best Experience I've Had All My Adult Life... I'm Truly Grateful To Have Come To A Place I Actually Called Home For 7 Months Because That's The Only Way Staff Would Have It.. I Can Say If U Don't Feel What I Felt During Your Stay There Then Maybe You Might Want To Consider Humbling Yourself A Lil More.. IJS . I've Been Housed Now For A Week So On Behalf Of My 9yr. Old Daughter (Aminah) And My 5yr. Old Son (Mister) We Thank EACH n EVERYONE Of Staff And Residents Included For Helping To Bring Us Back Together In A GOD Bless Place We Can Again Call Home...

Don't call it a homeless shelter. Here the staff is professional, the officers are solid and in sync, the case managers are on the case. As a former client and graduate (for lack of a better term), all that it is promised is given and if all that is given is used, then one can find their way to self-reliance. Am very grateful to MSI.

MSI is a wonderfully helpful place to live, while reconfiguring one's life. The incredibly compassionate staff, are dedicated to guiding we male residents into self chosen career paths, while professionally informing, assisting and guiding us towards all available resources we otherwise would not have been aware of. A case manager is soon assigned to each individual, and a rational plan for the person is discussed and personally formulated with realistic achievable goals. Stable permanent housing is usually first on the list, thereby ending homelessness. Having been to several other similar shelters, i would advise the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors to absolutely use MSI as THE MODEL PROGRAM for all others, since a high success rate is the fundamental goal all involved diligently work towards.

When can you shower??

Neal Johnson | Aug 28, 2019
Joseph Leocadio | Aug 28, 2019

There are showers available on the 1st and 2nd level restroom, five showers each floor including ADA. Restrooms were entirely remodeled in Aug 2018. They're cleaned 3x daily. As long as you are a client and there is no mandatory meeting or workshop, one may shower when a stall is ready. I've not heard complaints of being too well showered.

This guy needs a place asap. His condition makes him eligible for SSI but he has to go thru the process and may take years.. leg pain keeps him from moving around alot. Would he have to leave every day?

Do you accommodate a family that is just waiting for my husbands last pay cheque but the apartment we staying now has evicted us and gave us a date to leave the place even my husbands had not got his pay cheque that his work has promised him to have

Kathy Manalo | Aug 28, 2019
James Stern | Aug 28, 2019

Montgomery Street Inn is for men only, there are however other shelters which can accommodate families.

Yeah do they have work for bed where you do a chore and do you have to check back in every day and do the have like a day labor service there

David Norris | Aug 28, 2018
Kevin Jones | Aug 28, 2018

While i was there i knew of a guy who got daily work through a day labor agency nearby and they placed him at Tesla in Fremont. To my knowledge MSI does not have a day labor place unless they've added one recently. You have to call in, ask if beds are available, express your need and keep calling for 2-3 days if nothing is immediately available. Once you are allowed to enter you will meet with staff and have a one on one orientation. Everything you need to know at that moment will be explained and then you'll be given a bed in bunk bed setting for your first three months. If you do well in your first 90 days then you will be moved into your own more private room with a privacy curtain. Yes, you must check back in and check out everyday by signing the written log. (Easy!) Everyone is assigned a chore but not everyone completes the assignment they were given. Those are usually the guys who dont survive the program and are asked to leave.

So is it easy to get into there cause I’m soon to be homeless and need to find a place to take me in soon till I can get on my feet

Ben Arciola | Aug 28, 2018
Randy Bainbridge | Aug 28, 2018

Yeah, Jose Arias has got it right. Like Jose says and bug them every day. squeaky wheel gets greased. Forgot to mention I'm at MSI, This is a great place. Wish you luck.

I will not finish moving my things into storage before 8:00 pm tomorrow I will need a place until I am able to find work. I no longer have a place to stay while I look for work. I will need to reach out to EDD for a bus pass to look for work.

Glynn Reynolds | Aug 28, 2018
James Stern | Aug 28, 2018

They will work with you in getting a bus pass and they insist you look for work while staying there.

What if you are not able to get there until after 7:00 pm because of time constraints. -GLynn
