MISSION STATEMENT:
It is the mission of Operation Address the Homeless (OATH) to strengthen and support our communities by providing short term solutions and individualized services to individuals and families who are homeless and to advocate for collaborative, locally driven means to end and prevent homelessness, helping improve the quality of life.
OUR CORE VALUES:
Our primary aim is to offer a stabilizing base of support for homeless men, women, and families as they transition back into our community. We believe our services should actively involve those in need of assistance through medical, financial, and life skills, and be of the highest quality and delivered with compassion and understanding. We subscribe to the tenet that all human beings have the inherent right to be treated with dignity and respect and we strive to embody and pass on those qualities to all we serve and those we maintain relationships with in our communities.
In memory of our Co-Founder Dean Smith
COVID - 19
We know the services and options available to our area homeless are being limited by this coronavirus outbreak. We are going to remain open in a limited capacity in order to service the homeless community during this unprecedented epidemic.
Operation Address The Homeless is currently open for services during our normal hours of operation. Monday, Wednesday, & Friday 4-7 pm. Sundays we do Pizza at 5 pm. We will have some limitations on how many people can be inside the building at a time. Our volunteers will be working diligently to clean and sanitize the building. We will also be following the CDC's guidelines located here.
