Good place for homeless help

Being that I live in my van currently I do not have all of the amenities that I like. This place is a day shelter for the homeless, but if you need a hot shower or you need some mail delivered or you need some services? I would advise visiting the St Francis Center in Denver.

I’ve been calling this place for the last few days. Must be closed. Anyone know of a number that works when called for this place.

Questions & Answers

Do they allow service dogs?

Michele Merlino | Oct 14, 2018
Shannon Wolf | Oct 14, 2018

Yes they do, HOWEVER, They're"allowance" or "criteria" is never consistent. Be sure to have your proof of current vaccines for the dog, and be wary of favored others who have "service dogs" aka pit bull puppy that lunges at my 17lb service dog poodle sitting calmly in my lap...be prepared with the law in written format and be well versed in it.

Is Identification required for homeless?

Bill Penrod | Oct 14, 2019
Kat McGuire-Waldrop | Oct 14, 2019

Actually that law is not constitutional. Y. As a United States Citizen we are not required to have I.D... They are trying to take Our Rights away that Our Fore-Father's fought so hard for Us to enjoy and live. It is not illegal to be homeless or to not have a State issued I.D....

I don't go there enough to answer that, but I would advise anyone to utilize patience if you are utilizing St. Francis's resources as well as any other shelter around Denver.

Thanks for your question. It is not a certainty that we would have your record on file. The only way to know for sure would be to come down and check with Office 6 and there is no guarantee that your record is available.

Were are y'all location now I don't see address need to pick up mail ? Thanks

I have a duffle bag of clothes it's all I carry with me. Does the shelter hold on to it??

Drew Urrutia | Oct 14, 2019
Downtown Denver | Oct 14, 2019

ST Francis Center does offer storage space the size of a leaf and lawn trash bag. As space is limited due to demand there is a first come first served system held daily for any vacated spaces. Storage can be accessed Mon - Fri from 8am to 3pm. And I believe 9 am to Noon on weekends. During those times storage can be accessed unlimited amount of times. Once a person obtains storage it remains that person's for an indefinite (forever and ever) amount of time PROVIDED storage rules (no food, drugs or hazardous materials to name a few) are followed AND the storage is renewed (revalidated) every 30 days. Renewals can be done in-person, over the phone or by proxy (your friend or relative). My personal experience has been that it took about or within as week to get storage. However I went and staked out my line position early every day until I was able to get storage. Also Wed and Thurs seemed to be the days one would have the best chance of succeeding.

A friend has no family here. He got laid off last Friday. And didn't get paid for the work he did. His room mate kicks him out because he paid weekly, yesterday he fell n broke his foot he needs a dr. Asap. Where do does he start ?

Edwina Cardini-Preston (Eddi) | Oct 14, 2019
Hillary Miller-gawd | Oct 14, 2019

This is a good place for resources and he can be here all day from 6:15a to 5:30p. The mission and voa have overnight shelters for men. The first time he comes here, the intake office will provide him with a packet of info including places for meals, free medical care, employment and housing assistance and other useful things. Hope this helps! Oh, and stout street clinic also offers free medical care for the homeless but he will have to go really early (before 7am) for the best chance to be seen as it's on a first come, first served basis.

Is there anything they can do for an older (65) disabled person (male) who can’t afford a place to live.

Phoebe Natanson | Oct 14, 2018
Sabrina سابرينا | Oct 14, 2018

Watch out for the crazy people and bugs. The place smells awful and is lousy with people on drugs. If they can place you it will take a long time. Try Colorado Coalition for the Homeless. Also, if you are a veteran the VOA is very helpful and can be too even if you aren't a veteran. The people that sit at St. Francis all day are the homeless that have given up on life and themselves. Try not to get sucked in. There's a place in Capitol Hill that helps a lot with Senior services. You should also check out 211, it is the United Way resource line. Even DHS on Federal and Holden can help. There are far better resources than St. Francis.
