Women Shelter
Providing Safety, Support, and Pathways to Independence
The Women's Shelter at Our Place, provides a safe and supportive space for adult women experiencing homelessness. The shelter offers temporary housing, essential services, and access to resources that help residents meet immediate needs, regain stability, and work toward long-term independence.
Programs at the shelter emphasize personal safety, self-sufficiency, and empowerment, while providing connections to healthcare, behavioral health services, education, and employment opportunities tailored to the unique needs of women.
How We Support Women Experiencing Homelessness
Safe Shelter and Immediate Needs: Residents have access to secure sleeping areas, meals, hygiene facilities, and a supportive environment to rest and recover.
Personalized Case Management: Staff work one-on-one with women to identify goals, connect with community programs, and develop plans for long-term stability.
Health, Wellness, and Empowerment: Women are connected to healthcare, behavioral health support, education, and employment resources. Programs promote self-sufficiency, personal safety, and empowerment.
Campus Connections: Residents can access other Nevada Cares Campus resources, including the Resource Center, Safe Camp, Winter Overflow, and permanent housing programs, helping them move toward independence.
