!¢ When you come in, staff will complete an intake and you will have access to a case manager who will work with you going forward on your unique needs.
!¢ Staff prefer new guests have a state issued ID upon intake; however, that is not a requirement to stay with us. A case manager can work with you to help you get identification. Staff do ask that you provide some type of identification within 72 hours.
!¢ Upon entering the facility all belongings are searched. This will occur each time you come into the building.
!¢ Shelter asks guests to limit personal possessions to one bag and a backpack ! this can be a suitcase, duffle bag, or other bag. This is because they lack storage space at their facility.
