Womxn Experiencing Homelessness...
We are a host site for Heart and Home Collaborative, a shelter for womxm experiencing homelessness.
H + H Collaborative is a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving women who are unhoused in Palo Alto. They believe in respect, participatory planning through community engagement, and friendship. Heart and Home Collaborative brings together Palo Alto residents, both unhoused and housed, to create dialogue, leverage resources, and develop services (such as shelter, outreach, and community meetings) that respect and respond to the needs and goals of individuals who are unhoused. Our team members invest themselves in personal relationships and in the creation of a loving and supportive community. Individuals who are unhoused participate in program conceptualizing, planning, decision-making, and evaluation, with the understanding that people who use services are the experts.
As a volunteer-run group, we thrive on the time that members of our community put in to supporting and sustaining the shelter. Interested in volunteering with Heart and Home? Check out opportunities for Stanford students and community members below. We welcome volunteers of all ages and genders!
- Approximately 10 shelter guests sleep in our sanctuary. Congregational members provide volunteer support and provide dinners.
