Interfaith Sanctuary provides overnight shelter and supportive services for men, women, and families with children. We open at 6:00 pm every night and close at 7:00 am (Sundays - 8:00 am). The shelter is located at 1620 W. River Street (just past the skatepark on 16th before the River Street light. Entrance is on Cooper Court behind Corpus Christi Day Shelter.) Individuals seeking shelter can arrive at 6:00 pm. No pre-registration or referrals are necessary.

For more information, call 343.2630 x4 after 5:30 pm (only) or leave a message with our answering service during the daytime at 368.6772. Email is a great way to reach us - info@interfaithsanctuary.org.

Interfaith Sanctuary Housing Services is a collaboration of people of faith and people of conscience who have joined together to shelter and serve individuals who are experiencing homelessness. We recognize the dignity of each person and therefore offer our services in an accepting and respectful manner.
