No one should have to choose between paying bills and feeding their family. Our food banks offer emergency groceries and pantry staples to individuals and families experiencing food insecurity. And for those without access to daily nutrition, our Family Dining Room provides hot, nutritious meals served with dignity and compassion.

We know that lasting transformation begins with the right tools. Our life skills programs offer training in areas like budgeting, job readiness, parenting, and wellness—equipping participants with practical knowledge for long-term independence and success.

More than just a place to sleep—we provide a path forward. Our emergency shelters offer immediate refuge for individuals and families facing homelessness. For those ready to take the next step, our transitional housing programs offer stability and structure while clients work toward long-term independence. 

Access to basic healthcare should never be a luxury. FISH offers medical, vision, and dental services through the Ross Medical Center to individuals in need. Whether it’s managing a chronic illness or receiving a much-needed eye exam, we’re here to help our clients stay healthy and thriving.

Our Revitalization and Student Housing Initiative provides reduced-cost housing to students—often single parents—pursuing education or workforce training in high-demand fields. The on-site Learning Center offers tutoring, mentoring, and a safe environment for children and adults to focus on their goals.

Our thrift stores support our mission by generating income and providing affordable clothing, furniture, and household items to the community. Shopping and donating to FISH Thrift Stores help fund our life-changing programs and offers job training opportunities to those we serve.
