Project T.O.U.C.H. – Together Our Unity Conquers Homelessness!

The Face of Homelessness has changed…Since our foundation in 2003, we have fought and advocated for our most vulnerable to receive the most basic and essential human needs. Since 2007, we have been providing a dedicated call center serving our local Police Departments 24/7.  

Project T.O.U.C.H. operates year round Emergency beds for Southwest Riverside County for our most vulnerable citizens serving approximately 40-50 people every day. 

As well as our primary year round self-sustaining transitional housing program serving over 250 individuals daily. Single mothers, men & women, emancipated foster youth, domestic violence victims, seniors, mentally and physically disabled, veterans and entire families with an average of 90-100 children are served through shared housing. 

Both programs provide comprehensive case management, employment assistance, transportation, food, clothing, medical assistance and more!  We answer 1000’s of calls annually, walking alongside those in need to give resources and support to homeless and potentially homeless individuals and families - providing a safety net of Love & Hope...servicing the most vulnerable in our community…
