Our Mission

Together we make a difference.

The Gathering Place provides low-barrier, trauma-informed care to women, gender-diverse people, and children facing homelessness and instability. We address the root causes of poverty, marginalization, and oppression, offering comprehensive services that guide our members from crisis to stability. With access to basic needs like food, shelter, and clothing, as well as long-term support such as housing assistance and mental health care, we empower individuals to rebuild their lives—all at no cost to those we serve.

We believe in the strength of community. Our core values—empowerment, inclusivity, and hope—are at the heart of everything we do. We create a safe, welcoming space where everyone is treated with respect, trust, and unconditional acceptance.

Programming ranges from addressing basic needs to supporting long-term stability and is based on the SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) pillars of recovery: health, home, purpose, and community.

In addition, TGP advances economic equity by providing financial assistance for expenses related to housing, healthcare, transportation, and other needs essential to guiding members on a path to stability.
