The New Community Shelter was established in 1994 to provide shelter & supportive services to homeless adult men & women in the Brown County and surrounding areas. In addition to providing shelter, the board of directors & staff believe it is essential to offer supportive services and to empower the residents to access other community services and to empower the residents to access other community resources necessary for achieving self sufficiency.
In November 2004, following a successful capital campaign, the doors were opened to our facility located at 301 Mather Street in Green Bay. The facility was made possible and is reliant on the generosity of local community members, corporations and individuals recruited by our very dedicated board of directors. Our facility presently accommodates 98 adult men and women in need of temporary emergency shelter.
The New Community Shelter's Community Meal Program has always been available to anyone in our community who is hungry - not just shelter residents. There are many families and senior citizens who have meals at the shelter to help supplement their income. Each evening a hot meal is provided 365 days per year. An additional noon meal is made available to all residents & the community on weekends & holidays. The number of children and total meals has risen dramatically in the past 3 years.
The New Community Shelter relies on the generosity of over 140 community volunteer groups, organizations, churches, families, businesses and individuals who cook and/or serve meals.
