HELPING HANDS COALITION
MISSION AND VISION STATEMENT Our mission is to assist the homeless, destitute and needy in our community. We don’t replicate what other organizations are doing in our area; instead we operate a drop-in day center and referral system. The center offers, those in need, a safe place where they find out about services available in the community and get advice on how to apply for assistance locally, statewide and nationwide. Helping Hands Coalition provides direct and practical help as well as hot meals on days other groups are not providing food; vouchers for laundry, bus tickets, prescriptions, utilities, warm clothing, tents, sleeping bags, and other camping equipment, etc., articles of hygiene, and items for pets; a place for them to collect phone messages and receive their mail; as well as a place to just catch their breath and figure out what and where to go next without judgement of any kind. The center treats all visitors with respect, dignity and compassion, AND WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION OR JUDGEMENT OF ANY KIND.
