As an emergency overnight homeless shelter, we provide food and lodging for the neediest of Fannin County. Residents have use of washer/dryer and showers. A continental breakfast, sack lunch, and hot evening meal are provided daily. All of our residents meet with a case manager on a weekly basis to track their goals and progress toward self-sufficiency.
