For Our New Facilities
At Bay Area Homeless Services, Inc., we take care to provide our clients high quality services personalized for their unique needs.
BAHS provides emergency homeless shelter services for low-income clients in the East Harris County, Baytown, Liberty County and Chambers County area.
Bay Area Homeless Services provides pre-employment, post employment, job readiness, employment maintenance, casework, and classes for current and former clients.
Homelessness is a subject that touches everyone in our service area communities. Prevention of homelessness, likewise, is an important topic because of the economic impact that homelessness has on each member of society, both in a direct, and indirect manner.
Your Continuing Assistance is Needed!
For more than 40 years, Bay Area Homeless Services has provided hope, shelter, and a pathway to self-sufficiency for homeless men, women, children, and families in our community. Today, we stand on the threshold of an exciting new chapter.
Construction of our new Men's Shelter, Commons Building, and Administrative-Training Center is nearing completion, bringing us closer to expanding services and creating a safer, more effective environment for those working to rebuild their lives.
While the buildings themselves are racing toward completion, we still need the furnishings, equipment, technology, and operational items necessary to place these facilities into full service and maximize their impact on the individuals, families, employers, and community who depend on us.
We invite you to help us complete this important project. A financial contribution of any size, or a donation of needed items, will directly support the final phase of equipping these new facilities for daily use. Every desk, chair, computer, appliance, bed, and program resource helps transform a building into a place of refuge, opportunity, and renewed hope.
A financial contribution of any size helps us cross the finish line.
