Emergency Shelter Program:
The Emergency Shelter program is the only 24-hour accessible program in Clark County designed specifically to meet the needs of the homeless, with an emphasis toward women, both with and without children.
The shelter is open to all homeless women who need a safe place to stay, day or night (30-90 days stay).
It offers assistance with all basic life needs such as meals, clothing, beds, showers, hygiene supplies and referrals.
After her first 30 days, a woman may be offered an extension to stay in the program or she is moved to their long-term Transitional Shelter program. Possessions of ID, minimum state residency or US citizenship are not requirements for accessing services.
164 beds are available in this program, of which 84 are for families and 80 are for single women.
