Homeless

Catholic Charities is committed to helping individuals and families experiencing homelessness find affordable, stable housing. Our team helps veterans and their families, people with severe mental illness and others who need shelter. We have multiple programs to help homeless persons throughout Northern Arizona.

A donation of 20 used bicycles to help homeless veterans, clients treated for mental health issues and other people living without homes. Many people experiencing homelessness are bound to walking, which limits their ability to access shelters, food pantries and other needed services to survive.

Austin Smith works at Catholic Charities in Flagstaff on a program called SOAR (SSI/SSDI, Outreach, Access, and Recovery) helping clients apply for disability benefits.

To qualify for SOAR clients must be experiencing or at-risk of homelessness and have a mental illness, co-occurring substance abuse disorder or other disability.
