SafeSleep United is an overnight, low barrier, non-denominational women's shelter, open daily from 5:45pm to 7:15am.

MISSION :

Our mission is to offer a warm, secure place for unsheltered women to sleep safely. What does low barrier mean? Low barrier reflects a housing-first approach, where people are welcomed as they are, without needing to be clean, sober, employed, or employable. We meet women where they are at, with the expectation they can do daily living activities independently and be respectful to others. We also accept pets, and moms with kids when we have the capacity.
