Our Cold Weather Shelters

Overview of JCCM’s Emergency Shelter
The JCCM shelter program provides a secure, compassionate environment for individuals facing homelessness, focusing not only on immediate shelter but also on longer-term stability and independence. Open 24/7, our shelter is a sanctuary offering guests rest, relief, and a pathway toward permanent housing.

 

Holistic Day Programs and Support
Day programs run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a daily lunch provided between 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. These optional activities, announced each morning, are tailored to empower guests in meaningful ways, from skill-building to health and wellness, personal growth, and community connections. Guests who opt out of programs may return to the shelter at 3 p.m., with curfew set at 10 p.m.

 

Dedicated Case Management
Guests are partnered with a dedicated Case Manager, either upon request at intake or after two weeks of residence. Through individualized housing plans, Case Managers work closely with guests to address immediate needs, set achievable goals, and eliminate barriers to permanent housing. They provide guidance with employment, vital document recovery, mental health support, and more.

 

A Path to Stability
JCCM is committed to ensuring each guest finds safe, stable housing as quickly as possible. Through collaboration with local organizations and resources, we strive to make a meaningful impact in the lives of our guests, helping them achieve stability and a brighter future.
