To help individuals and churches to compassionately engage with and support people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness in our city. We provide caring, supportive chaplaincy and lead outreach, groups and activities for the homeless community. We also train volunteers to get involved in our work of addressing the root causes of homelessness: poverty of resources, relationships and identity.
