How cool is this quilt that a ShelterCare Birch program participant made in only ten days?? This is what happens when people are able to take a break from living on the street in survival mode, find safety and security, and get the opportunity to get in touch with their hobbies. We can't wait to see what they make next!

It's Su***de Prevention Month! Here's a reminder that you can always call 988 when you need support.

Strength doesn't always look like pushing through. Sometimes it's resting. Sometimes it's asking for help. Sometimes it's just making it to tomorrow.

Whatever today looks like for you, you're doing enough. 💜

The Tom Campbell at Chase Commons Safe Sleep Site closed June 30, resulting in 20 fewer medical respite beds. Here's why it closed.

Thanks to everyone who came to tour ShelterCare Behavioral Health yesterday! Did you know ShelterCare has a mental health clinic that is open to the public? Many people know us for our housing programs, but we have a variety of mental health services, and our therapists currently have openings!

Thank you, NAWIC Eugene, OR #77 Chapter! Financial assistance programs do not cover necessary items like toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and toiletries, so we are so appreciative of donations like these! Our friends at NAWIC showed up with multiple carts full of items for our participants
