We want everyone in Morris County to have a home. Help Us Achieve This Dream.

GIVE NOW

Providing a Hand UP, Not a HandOUT

We offer shelter, services, and supportive housing to the homeless and working poor in Morris County, New Jersey.

The Problem

Rent is High

Average rent for a 2-bedroom house in
Morris County:
$1,400+/month

but...

Pay is low

To afford this, a family must earn:
$28/hour
The average New Jersey renter makes just over:
$18/hour

This gap is resulting in more homelessness and people struggling to afford a home.

Our Solutions

Warming Center

Winter Warming Center provides overnight shelter during the winter period for street homeless individuals along with access to restrooms, clothing, food, and cold weather items.

Main Shelter

Our 85-bed shelter is designed for a short-term stay in dormitory-style living that accommodates single men and women, families, and Safe Haven for those with a mental health diagnosis.

Transitional Housing Program

The ten 3-bedroom apartments that comprise our THP facility are home to families whose adult members are employed and working hard to obtain permanent housing.

Outreach Program

Our Family Supportive" Outreach" Program is for our Transitional Housing Program graduates.  They can receive follow-up supportive services for 2 years upon graduation.  Our goal is to ensure they do not cycle back into homelessness.

Senior Housing

The Mt. Kemble Home provides safe, affordable housing for 22 senior women of very limited means. Each resident has her own room and shared living spaces.

Housing Development

Since 2004, our Housing Development team has been transforming communities by taking derelict buildings or underutilized lots and creating safe, affordable homes throughout Morris County.
