Emergency Shelters
Mercy House currently operates nine different emergency shelters across Southern California. Emergency Shelters work with families and individuals to find and obtain permanent housing as rapidly as possible. Every client is connected to a Housing Navigator upon entry, who works with them to identify needs and barriers upon entering permanent housing. Our clients also receive meals, showers, access to life skills, and additional support all with the focus of permanent housing. • Tempe Motel | Tempe, AZ • Rancho Del Arte, Rancho Del Sol, Franmar Manor | Mesa and Phoenix, AZ • Phoenix Motel | Phoenix, AZ • Bridges at Kraemer Place | Anaheim, CA •Brundage Lane Navigation Center I Bakersfield • Buena Park Navigation Center | Buena Park, CA • Costa Mesa Bridge Shelter | Costa Mesa, CA • Hulen Bridge Shelter I Riverside • Huntington Beach Navigation Center | Huntington Beach, CA • New Hope | Bellflower, CA • Oxnard Navigation Center | Oxnard, CA • The Arch of Ventura
Mercy House's Emergency Shelter and Services programs' primary long-term goal is to increase access to services for the homeless in our community and provide pathways to housing. These programs are designed to meet immediate human needs while creating pathways toward stability and self-sufficiency through referrals and access to services. By acting as an entry point for the homeless to engage with service providers, including Mercy House, these Emergency Shelter and Services programs play an integral role in our mission to end homelessness.
Permanent Housing
Permanent Housing focuses on one of America’s greatest needs: affordable housing. Mercy House provides permanent, supportive housing to qualified households, giving them a second chance at establishing a home and creating a life of self-sufficiency and success. The different types of permanent housing programs we operate are: • Affordable Permanent Housing • Rapid Re-housing • Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) • Residential Services • Homeless Prevention
Affordable permanent housing is naturally deeply tied to homelessness, the high cost of housing in our community remains one of the major reasons people become homeless. Mercy House combats this directly by providing services-enriched affordable permanent housing. In the long term this will produce two major outcomes. First, by placing more and more housing within the reach of low-income individuals and families, Mercy House will lower the incidence of homelessness and provide more ways out of homelessness, and secondly, by providing services alongside housing, Mercy House invests in the housing stability of those we house.
