OUR Place is a groundbreaking, low-barrier, person-centered emergency shelter that stands apart as a shining example of compassion and care. Uniting the community under a shared vision, OUR Place is meticulously crafted to offer a warm, secure, and nurturing haven, where every guest is not just welcomed but cherished.
About OUR Place
In partnership with Washoe County HSA, we provide shelter and wrap around services for 138 women, 38 families, 28 seniors, and all of their animal companions every day. The facility is newly remodeled to provide an appealing place for temporary residents. RISE advocates operate these homes 24/7 and support the residents as they work toward their goals.
