Opportunity Place, Inc. Opportunity Place, Inc., is the only low-barrier temporary emergency shelter for families and single FAMILY FOCUSED

We keep families together.

LOW BARRIER

Everyone deserves safe shelter and an opportunity to succeed in life. Our shelter doors are open to all families and women experiencing homelessness. HOUSING FIRST

People need their basic needs met before they can address the complex issues that have led to homelessness. Our case management services are focused on housing and financial stability. Case management is tailored to each family unit and our child services program addresses the unique needs of children who are homeless. We believe every woman, child and family has the innate right to be safe and deserves an opportunity to succeed in life. OPPORTUNITY PLACE. SHORT TERM SHELTER. LONG TERM SOLUTIONS.

122 people on our waiting list. Every room currently occupied. And a community that continues to show up. ❤️

This is both a blessing and a reminder of just how great the need is.

Because of YOU, your donations, sponsorships, financial contributions, attendance at our events, sharing our mission online, and simply showing up to support us, we are able to continue making a difference in the lives of families who need it most.

But Opportunity Place needs you now more than ever.

Behind every number is a person, a family, and a story. Families who deserve the opportunity to stay together, find stability, rebuild their lives, and move forward with hope.

Our recent kitchen renovation has been an absolute game changer for our shelter. This was such a necessary improvement, and we cannot express enough gratitude to Wes Customs for their incredible generosity, selflessness, and willingness to give back. Your kindness has made a lasting impact on the families we serve.

And to our entire community, THANK YOU. From the bottom of our hearts. Every donation, every share, every sponsorship, and every act of kindness matters more than you know.

🎲 We need your support! Join us November 7th for our Annual Casino Night, our BIGGEST fundraiser of the year! Events like this are what make it possible for us to continue providing a safe place for families, improving our shelter, and helping those in need take their next steps toward a brighter future.

122 people are waiting. Let’s continue showing them that their community hasn’t forgotten them.

Together, we can keep families together, restore hope, and change lives. ❤️
