Services
At JOURNEYS  The Road Home, we serve people from all walks of life.  Homelessness does not discriminate and can be chronic or situational. It affects a variety of people including families with children, young adults, and senior citizens. The causes for homelessness can range from a lack of affordable housing to mental illness or chemical dependency. Family problems, domestic violence and abuse, disability, poverty and even a series of insurmountable bad luck can lead to homelessness. At Journeys, we work to provide intervention and support to address the root cause of homelessness, and lead people back to a stable environment.

HOPE Center
The HOPE Center is a day resource center that provides free services to the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless.
