Our mission

Supporting homeless families and their children as they build a better future.
Opportunities

Volunteering as a Family

We are happy to have families come together to volunteer at Alpha House! It is a wonderful experience to cook a meal together and then come serve it to our residents, and join them in the dining room; it is truly fun as a family to come and join our children at the evening Activity Time.

Work Groups

Sometimes volunteers come to Alpha House as a group and donate their time and energy together for a few hours. Work groups can provide us with invaluable help organizing, cleaning, maintaining our grounds, painting; they can also be very helpful with one-time projects.

About us

For 25 years, Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN) at Alpha House has partnered with the community to shelter and support children and families experiencing homelessness in our community. During this time, our mission has remained constant and our programs have a single purpose – ending child and family homelessness. Emergency Shelter, Rapid Re-Housing, Children’s Services, Housing Location Assistance, and Home-Based Support all support families as they secure and maintain stable housing.
