Emergency Assistance

With our varied programs and services, Amos House broadens the paths of possibilities for change for those in need. Through crisis intervention, housing, recovery meetings, intensive case management, job training and development, financial services, legal assistance, and ongoing outreach programs, Amos House helps change lives and creates possibilities where none existed before.

Emergency Assistance programs include:

• Street Outreach Program: Our Outreach Team works with unsheltered individuals and families, providing them with vital supplies, harm reduction materials, case management services, and access to housing and recovery resources. Curious about how we can help?
• Housing Assistance: We assist in completing housing applications. We do not currently provide rental or utility assistance.
• Hygiene Packets: Each year, Amos House distributes more than 15,000 individual hygiene packets to men, women, and families.
• IDs and Birth Certificates: For many, obstacles to employment or education may be as simple as replacing an ID or Birth Certificate. Our Case Managers help those in need cover the fees and navigate the process, opening doors for opportunity.
• A Hand Up: A day labor program for individuals who are panhandling or at risk of panhandling, AHU offers cash payment for daily work and connects them to supportive services intended to help them access other options and greater opportunities.
