St. Joseph Center's varied programs
have developed over the years in response to the changing needs
of the community we serve. We now offer ten programs at seven different
Westside locations. We offer a helping hand, but always with the
utmost respect for the dignity inherent in every person. Each of
our programs, from childcare for impoverished families to money
management for homeless veterans, illustrates our motto: Planting
Hope, Growing Lives.
Our ten programs
are organized into three continuums of care:
The Homeless
Services Continuum helps people meet their most basic
needs and, when they are ready, assists them with the move from
the street into shelters, transitional housing, and permanent housing.
Programs include: Homeless Service Center, Bread and Roses Café,
Affordable Housing Services, and Senior Services.
The Family Services
Continuum serves low-income families and individuals with programs
designed to help them achieve lasting self-sufficiency. Programs
include: Culinary Training Program, Early Learning Center, Family
Center and Food Pantry Program, and Infant Toddler Development Center.
The Money Management
Services Continuum provides individuals suffering from mental
illness and substance abuse with representative payee services and
ongoing financial counseling. St. Joseph Center's program for military
veterans has become a national model for the Veterans Administration.
Programs include: Monetary Advisory Program and Veterans Representative
Payee Program.
