 The Bristol Homeless Shelter
The Bristol Homeless Shelter was founded in 1984 as the Bristol Emergency
Shelter and Housing Coalition. It is a 25 bed emergency shelter for men, women,
and children which provides food, shelter, case-management, and referral
services. The Shelter provides services, on average, to 300 unduplicated men,
women and children per year. 79% of all men, women and children have only used
the shelter during one calendar year, and never had a return. The Shelter is
open 24 hours per day, 52 weeks per year. The goal of the Bristol Homeless
Shelter is to provide temporary emergency shelter to persons experiencing
homelessness. To provide them with a safe, stable base from which to get and
keep a job, enable children to return to school, and provide relief from the
emotional and moral violence that often accompanies homelessness.
