"STAY HOME, STAY SAFE" FOR THOSE THAT CAN
The best defense in stopping the spread of COVID-19 is to STAY HOME! it is now an order from our Governor to ultimately save lives. But, what do you do when you have no home or you are afraid in your own home. Help is needed more than ever to find housing for the homeless and keep everyone safe.
