We provide more than 90% of the shelter beds available to single women and nearly half of all shelter beds in the Richmond area. The hard work of 15,000 volunteers and 150+ host congregations creates a safe and hospitable place for our most vulnerable citizens.   Upon entering CARITAS, guests find not only the necessities for survival — they find the tools for success. Through the growing web of CARITAS volunteers, staff, and agency partners, guests get the help they need to get off the street, back on their feet, and on the path to self-sufficiency.   Get Shelter   If you are 3 days or less away from losing housing or are already experiencing homelessness, call this number: Housing Crisis Line: 804-972-0813   This phone line facilitates access to resources and shelter alternatives.   CARITAS receives all shelter placement referrals through coordinated entry. CARITAS emergency shelters are committed to providing a place of shelter and support for every individual who passes through our doors. We accomplish this through a network of partner congregations.   CARITAS emergency shelter programs provide case management that focuses on developing a Housing Stabilization plan. This individualized plan identifies barriers to housing, establishes housing goals and identifies the steps that are necessary for individuals and families to exit shelter and return to self-sufficiency.
