Shelters
Pillars operates two shelters, Pillars Adult Shelter and Pillars Adult & Family Shelter. Clients at these shelters are provided with personal care items and meals to meet their basic needs. Between the two shelters, we can serve up to 140 people at a time, however, we do operate off of a waitlist.
If you would like to be added to the shelter waitlist, you need to go in person to a Pillars Crisis Housing Site (Adult & Family Shelter, Adult Shelter, or Resource Center).
- Pillars staff will complete a background check with each client.
- The client will be added to the waitlist if eligible.
- The client is responsible for calling to check in before 4:00 pm each day to inform them they are still seeking shelter.
