FAQs

What does Friendship Place do?
Starting with outreach to people who are living on the streets and in the parks of our community, Friendship Place offers a range of services that will help them rebuild their lives. A homeless person who walks into Friendship Place finds hospitality and companionship over coffee and sandwiches, access to a telephone and mail delivery, and a case manager who will help him or her through the process of recovery. Depending on the person’s needs, the services provided will include assistance in qualifying for public benefits, healthcare, psychiatric evaluation, mentoring and, eventually, housing.
