The response

The rotating season is over.

For years ICRH guests moved every week: days at the day shelter, nights at whichever church was hosting. With the Morey House, guests stay put and have their own bed.

Local churches and partners now focus on what they do best: bringing the evening meal, visiting with guests and helping staff. Volunteers are still needed every day and evening.

The need

Largely invisible, and very real.
