Resource Roundup | Understanding & Implementing Housing First

"Housing First approaches compel us to understand people as unique individuals and to create person-centered solutions to individual and specific housing and service needs—solutions that are not driven by our preferred program design, or by our own limitations about who we are best at working with. Solutions that are instead driven by who people are and how we can best support them to end their own homelessness."

More Ways to Give | Silent Auction, Meet An Author, Coffee Shop

Looking for more opportunities to give back to Shelter House during the annual Book Sale? Be sure to stop by our Coffee Shop when you arrive and grab a coffee & delicious pastry before you peruse the grand selection. We'll have "Housing is a Human Right" shirts, designed in partnership with RAYGUN, mugs & canvas totes featuring illustrations by artist Claudia McGehee all available for purchase.

About Shelter House
Much more than a roof and a bed. Since 1983, Shelter House has provided safe shelter and helped people improve the quality of their lives as they move beyond homelessness. We offer a robust continuum of programs and supports focusing on emergency, stabilization, and long-term interventions in the areas of housing, employment, and mental health recovery. In so doing, we help hundreds of men, women and children each year to get back on their feet. For more information about Shelter House, visit https://shelterhouseiowa.org/
