Keeping Families Together.
Greater Lafayette’s only Emergency Shelter that keeps parents and children under one roof while they rebuild their lives.
Words from the families we serve
“And so they were like, okay, you can come here, and if we don’t have this
for you, then we’ll do that. And if we can’t do this, then we’ll figure it out.
But at the end of the day, you and your children... I don’t want to get
emotional... You and your children are going to be safe. And in a moment
like that, hanging on to a person’s word, a stranger that you don’t even
know, and actually having them come through, I knew I was in the right
place. I knew I was in the right place.”
“I was overwhelmed sleeping in my car while my kids were staying on a friend’s couch. I didn’t know what I was going to do. When I came here, they cared. They helped. They made a real difference for me and my kids. I won’t ever forget that””
“When I was walking into the door for the first time, I felt like I was checking myself into jail. I was scared and worried, but would do anything to make sure I stayed with my kids. It was a relief to have support, a stable place to stay, and knowing my kids were staying with me and not in foster care.”
