Supportive Sheltering
Shelter for Resting & Rebuilding
Our Supportive Sheltering initiative operates two vital arms: the Menlo Park Safe Rest Village and our emergency sheltering resources. Menlo Park Safe Rest Village provides a stable, supportive environment for our unhoused neighbors year-round, focusing on long-term recovery and empowerment. Concurrently, our emergency sheltering efforts step in during weather-related crises, ensuring individuals have immediate access to safety and essential support when confronted with dangerous conditions.
Menlo Park Safe Rest Village
A place to get back on your feet.
Our Menlo Park Safe Rest Village provides life-changing support and shelter 24/7, 365 days a year. Accessing a safe and supportive shelter can be a critical part of many of our neighbors’ journeys. Within the shelter environment we provide safety, empowerment, connection to services, and community support to ensure a transformative experience for all neighbors.
“There’s not many places for us to just exist. So it’s really wonderful to find a place that can just take us in and allow us to exist here.”

Severe Weather Shelter
Shelter from the storm.
During severe weather events, our emergency sheltering program is dedicated to providing immediate safety and support to those in need. Whether faced with freezing temperatures or sweltering heat, our shelters are equipped to protect and assist individuals during their most vulnerable moments.
We offer essential resources, including warm meals, bedding, and access to medical care, ensuring that our neighbors are safe from the elements. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where people can find refuge and receive the help they need in times of crisis.
