Father Fred offers a variety of services to those in need. In one unit of our facility, we house a food pantry focused on healthy options and organized as a self-shop model to preserve our guest’s dignity and simultaneously reduce waste. In addition to our clothing area, we assist guests who may need other home items such as a bed, dishes, or shelves.

If a guest is struggling with eviction, keeping the heat on or medical bills, we have a financial services staff member available to listen to their circumstance and advise or assist them as we are able.
