Benjamin's House Emergency Shelter

We are a program-based homeless shelter, providing assistance and case management services.

Benjamin's House Emergency Shelter is named after Mother Mary Benjamin, the Mother Superior of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Third Order of St. Francis. Long ago she generously welcomed to their convent another order of Sisters who were poor, homeless, and faced with disbanding. Since 2011, it has been used as an emergency shelter. Please help us make a difference not only for those we serve but for a healthy, vibrant, and KIND community.  Kindness Creates Community!
