Your Support Helps Us Say Yes.
For people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity, even a small unexpected expense can become a major barrier to housing. Too often, critical needs fall outside traditional funding sources. Your year-end support allows HomeFirst to respond in those moments, remove barriers, create opportunities, and say "yes" when it matters most.
Street-based Services & Emergency Shelter
Our street outreach team and emergency shelter provide support and services that result in successfully transitioning 1-in-2 people from unsheltered homelessness to permanent housing.
Coordinated Entry
HomeFirst manages the county-wide system to assess the needs of every person experiencing or at risk of homelessness and effectively connect them to housing solutions.
Rapid Rehousing

Street-Based Services
Meeting people where they are, building trust, and navigating the process of moving from street to shelter is the role of our Outreach team. They are the first line of help during natural disasters and public health emergencies.
Emergency Shelters & Interim Emergency Housing
We operate congregate shelters, interim housing, and seasonal weather shelters providing safe shelter for up to 1,000 adults and families a night.
Permanent Supportive Housing
With case management, employment navigation, and other programs, we can support individuals, youth, and families who have experienced homelessness, or are at risk of homelessness, stay housed.
Veterans Support
With over a decade of experience, HomeFirst offers the most comprehensive services for homeless Veterans—including mental health counseling, emergency shelter, and permanent housing.
Prevention Programs
Staying housed is the most important way to prevent homelessness. We have several programs that provide financial help to support at-risk people and families.
