If you are homeless or know someone experiencing homelessness, MACH is here to connect you with the resources that can best meet your needs.
The first call you should make is 2-1-1. All of MACH’s available shelters and services can be reached by dialing 2-1-1, a free, community resource call center for access to available health and human services, including shelters and housing programs for the homeless.
