Interfaith Community Shelter News

There’s good news for our community members who are experiencing homelessness – the Interfaith Community Shelter has just completed a campaign to raise funds to offer safety, shelter, food, beds and community to women and their children who ordinarily would have to be back on the street as of May 8th. The shelter will now be open all summer and fall for women. Yay!
