FACETS in Action: Hypothermia Prevention Program

 

Our Hypothermia Response and Prevention Program is in full swing in partnership with local faith communities. Together we are providing a warm place to sleep, hot food and a welcoming atmosphere for people with nowhere else to go. We are also offering life skills and one-on-one services to help our guests move out of homelessness for good. Your gift to FACETS will help us provide these and other vital services.
