Homelessness in Cottonwood
Catholic Charities is committed to helping individuals and families experiencing homelessness find affordable, stable housing. Our team helps veterans and their families, people with severe mental illness and others who need shelter. In addition to emergency shelter, we also offer supportive housing programs to qualifying individuals.
Homeless Outreach
Catholic Charities team members outreach to unsheltered persons to get them into life-saving shelter. If individuals refuse to move to a shelter, our team will distribute winter survival gear.
Winter isn’t the only time our team is active. Our PATH (Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness) program searches for these vulnerable persons wherever they are—on the streets, under bridges, in tunnels or out in the deserts and forests.
This team works to identify seriously mentally ill persons experiencing homelessness and engage them with resources, services and treatment opportunities while treating them with dignity and compassion.
Community Re-Entry
Fresh starts are important to the Catholic Charities team. Our Community Re-Entry program provides safe, affordable, temporary group housing for those who have had justice system involvement and need help getting their lives turned around. Each resident contributes to house chores while they strive to improve their situation by finding employment, and, if applicable, attending substance abuse support groups, and checking in with their probation officers. Catholic Charities’ compassionate team members offer support and resources.
