Gathering for Women also partners with another local agency (Community Human Services) to provide services to Casa de Noche Buena, a housing first 90-day emergency shelter for single women and families with children, which opened in January 2021. Guests are assigned a room for the duration of their residency. We provide case management and housing navigation for the single women and meals seven days a week for all guests at the shelter, and Community Human Services provides case management for the families and oversees the shelter operations. The partnership draws on both organizations past success.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided––
