Mission Statement

The Taos Coalition to End Homelessness, TCEH, offers a safe haven for the homeless men of Taos County in cooperation with trained staff and support from foundations, state, county and our community. Along with helping men, the shelter provides important community services. We are a placement resource for the police department, churches, mental health agencies, and families who encounter men who have nowhere else to go. Our shelter is a humane and effective solution. It saves public funding by avoiding the expense of incarceration and/or emergency room care.

Description

Taos Men’s Shelter has been serving the homeless of Taos County for the last 12 years, providing emergency shelter and basic resources as well as case management. In 2017 approximately 40% of our guests who engaged in case management were about to re-stabilize and either find housing or return to a previous home. Our primary volunteer program is our Dinner Donors Program. With the help of over 50 volunteers, we offer a free, hot dinner that is open to the public, We hope to expand upon our volunteer programs by recruiting volunteers to help us manage our Donations and Supplies Shed, as well as bringing in volunteers to spend time engaging with and encouraging our guests in the evenings.
