LSS Bethany Crisis Shelter: Providing Hope and Support to Those in Need
Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota (LSS) is a non-profit organization that has been serving the community for over 150 years. LSS Bethany Crisis Shelter is one of the many programs offered by LSS, providing emergency shelter and support services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness or crisis situations.
At LSS Bethany Crisis Shelter, our mission is to express the love of Christ for all people through service that inspires hope, changes lives, and builds community. We believe that everyone deserves a safe place to call home, and we work tirelessly to provide shelter, food, clothing, counseling services, and other resources to those in need.
Our team of dedicated staff members and volunteers are committed to creating a welcoming environment where individuals can feel supported as they navigate difficult times. We understand that homelessness can be caused by a variety of factors such as job loss or mental health issues. Therefore we offer personalized support services tailored towards each individual's unique needs.
Our shelter provides temporary housing for up to 90 days while our clients work towards finding permanent housing solutions. During their stay at our facility clients have access to nutritious meals prepared by our kitchen staff three times daily. Our facility also offers laundry facilities so clients can maintain their personal hygiene during their stay with us.
We understand that homelessness can be traumatic; therefore we offer counseling services provided by licensed professionals who help clients deal with emotional trauma caused by homelessness or other crisis situations they may have experienced before coming into our care.
In addition to providing basic needs like food and shelter we also provide case management services which include assistance with job searches resume building interview preparation budgeting skills financial literacy training etcetera all aimed at helping them become self-sufficient once they leave our care.
We are proud of the impact we have made on the lives of those who come through our doors seeking help. Our success stories include individuals who were able to secure stable employment after receiving job search assistance from us; families who were reunited after being separated due to homelessness; individuals who received mental health treatment while staying with us which helped them overcome depression anxiety PTSD among others.
At LSS Bethany Crisis Shelter we believe in transparency when it comes down how donations are used therefore every donation made goes directly towards supporting those in need whether it's buying groceries paying rent covering utility bills or any other expenses related directly related client care.
