Several organizations and groups in Santa Clara County exist to help men and women like Fortner and Giannoni. HomeFirst is one of them, but not the only one. Aside from the North County Winter Shelter, the organization operates the Boccardo Reception Center, the county’s largest homeless service center, and a shelter in Gilroy. Boccardo, located at 2011 Little Orchard St. in San Jose, is open around the clock, year-round and serves both individuals and families on a first come, first served basis. The shelter has been in service since 1999 and offers 250 beds as well as all sorts of amenities, including showers, laundry facilities, hot meals, a library, computer lab, housing specialists, case management, a work program and a veterans resource center. During inclement weather, the shelter increases its capacity by an extra 50 beds, according to Demos.

Unlike Boccardo, the Sunnyvale shelter is open only through March and accepts clients only through a referral basis, People can register for a spot at the shelter through agencies such as the Downtown Streets Team and Sunnyvale Community Services, Both shelters allow clients to bring their companion animals and provide them with kennels, crates, food and treats, The Sunnyvale shelter recently opened a lactation room and ballerina sock monkey christmas gift for ballerina gift for dancer tutu dancing oddities ballet shoes slippers funny gift for he is working on starting a small library, “We find a lot of people need that help in getting out of their current situation,” Demos said, “We’re seeing more and more people come in that lived comfortably and had jobs, but they just fell behind… and it’s so hard to pull yourself out of that.”..

Faith In Action is a rotating shelter program that operates in 12 churches and synagogues in Sunnyvale, Cupertino and Saratoga. This month it’s at the Congregational Community Church of Sunnyvale and next month the Trinity United Methodist Church in Sunnyvale will host the program. The churches rotate monthly throughout the year and provide a clean and sober environment for up to 15 men on a referral basis. The organization’s strict criteria for candidates help it stand out from other programs, said Cathey Edwards, executive director of Faith In Action.

“It’s for clean and sober males who are employable or willing to work and willing to move into permanent housing,” she said, “We oftentimes aren’t pretty full because of that, but we feel that’s something that’s different from other shelters and our guys will say they appreciate the structure we provide for them and the fact that everybody is on the same ballerina sock monkey christmas gift for ballerina gift for dancer tutu dancing oddities ballet shoes slippers funny gift for he page.”, Each site provides sleeping cots or mats, lockers, meals, showers, laundry kits, bicycles for transportation and case management services, Pets are not allowed, but staff will help the men find accommodations for their furry friends, Edwards said..

The men are housed between 8 p.m. and 7 a.m., after which they’re encouraged to go out and look for work. As long as they can prove they are actively seeking employment and housing, they can stay at the shelters for up to three months, Edwards said. “If at that point they still haven’t found housing we will give them an extension kind of on a weekly basis, but we really do expect them to be moving on,” she said. “This is not the next lily pad to land on.”. It’s for practical purposes that the program serves only men, Edwards said. Due to the organization’s small budget, it can afford only one overnight staff member. Another reason is that when the program launched, the vast majority of the homeless were men, she said. Unfortunately, that trend now seems to include women, too.

Faith In Action has operated since 1990 but took on its current form in 2012, Since then, the program has sheltered more than 200 men and moved more ballerina sock monkey christmas gift for ballerina gift for dancer tutu dancing oddities ballet shoes slippers funny gift for he than 100 into permanent housing, Edwards said, Next year, it will celebrate its fifth year, “We are changing lives one guy at a time and when we look back that way, we realize that we are making a difference,” Edwards said, “We’re not putting them into another program; we’re actually housing them.”, The Winter Faith Collaborative is one of the newer organizations that tackles homelessness, Co-founded by Phil Mastrocola, the collective includes 60 congregations that serve and shelter the homeless typically from December to April, Of that number, about 20 operate as shelters in the cities of San Jose, Cupertino, Campbell and Milpitas..

The idea for the collaborative sprung from a discussion following the screening of a documentary film in a San Jose church last October titled “Exodus from the Jungle,” Mastrocola said. “Faith leaders and congregants said we need to do something to help people more than we already are,” he said. “So we met for about three months and created a network.”. Each church in the collective has its own rules, but typically operates from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. and provides beds, showers and meals. Most allow pets. Some will offer shelter for the entire winter, while others commit to a month. Some are co-ed, others are segregated by gender and still others accept only families. They also choose their own capacity. Some offer full services while others operate as drop-in centers or “safe car parks” that permit people to sleep inside their cars while parked in their parking lot. Each church is serviced by volunteers and members of the congregations in the collective.

This past year, the churches sheltered a combined 258 individuals, “It was an organic response to the overwhelming issue of homelessness in San Jose, particularly during the winter of 2015,” Mastrocola said, Mastrocola said while ballerina sock monkey christmas gift for ballerina gift for dancer tutu dancing oddities ballet shoes slippers funny gift for he the organization provides shelter to the homeless during the winter and on an emergency basis, its long-term mission is to work toward changing policies that impact the homeless community, Organizations are not the only ones out there doing all the heavy lifting, Around every corner, there are individuals who take on some of the grunt work, Mark Metzler and Mady Salonga are among them..
