Narrative

St. Francis House is a homeless day shelter for adults. They do not offer specialized services for persons with disabilities. They serve them as part of their overall population.

They offer:

  • referral & advocacy services
  • crisis intervention
  • housing assistance
  • job counseling
  • a literacy program
  • legal assistance
  • mail services

Many guests come to St. Francis House at first because they need a hot, nourishing meal.

We serve breakfast from 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. daily, and lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., 365 days a year.
