Stay informed about issues.

We understand that homelessness is a complex issue, and it’s okay if you feel overwhelmed. Since 1989, we’ve dedicated ourselves to educating our community about the housing crisis in Greater Lafayette. Through our efforts, we aim to foster understanding and drive meaningful change.

Give to help our guests.

Whether you choose to make a monetary donation or offer your time, your support plays a crucial role in helping our guests get back on their feet. Nonprofits like ours thrive thanks to the generosity of people like you!

Help to end homelessness.

Those experiencing homelessness don’t have to be stuck in this cycle forever, and there’s a solution beyond going to a shelter. Together, we can end homelessness one person at a time.

“They want to take care of people and it’s out of their heart… I can’t thank them enough.”

“I used the phones when I needed, the computer for job searches. It’d be pretty bleak for any homeless person without the services of transitional housing.”

We’re conveniently located on North 12th Street (at the old Trinity Mission location). Visit us for a tour of our facilities to see what we do and how you can help by donating items, money, a meal, or your time.
