From homeless to home, and every step in between, HumanKind Ministries is here for you. More than shelter, food, and basic needs, we want to help you address your unique challenges and help you build a brighter future for yourself and your family. Let’s get started.
In a world full of limited resources, there’s one that’s truly unlimited—human kindness.
A Message from HK regarding COVID-19
Like many of you, we have been closely following the news and updates from officials and health organizations regarding the spread of COVID-19 (“Coronavirus”). New updates are coming in all the time, but we want to assure you that HumanKind Ministries is here for you in these uncertain times and we are doing everything we can to keep you safe, our shelters open, and our services available.
We have closed our offices to the public as part of our safety measures, but you are welcome to call our administrative office or leasing office if you have any issues (contact info below). We strongly encourage you to socially distance and continue to follow CDC guidelines.
If you are having financial issues due to closures related to the spread of COVID-19, please reach out to your case manager (if you are a client of HK) or contact 2-1-1.
Thank you, and stay safe!
Best,
LaTasha St. Arnault
