Shelter Network is committed to providing housing and support services that create opportunities for homeless families and individuals to re-establish self-sufficiency and to return to permanent homes of their own.

Shelter Network was founded in 1987 to provide a comprehensive coordinated network of housing and social services for the homeless residents of the San Francisco Peninsula. It was initiated by a broad-based community response to the plight of homeless families and single adults Since the beginning, the Peninsula’s residents, religious congregations, businesses, and local government organizations have contributed considerable talent, hours, and dollars to Shelter Network.

Contact Mike Glish, UUSM's Coordinator for Shelter Network, for more information on how to get involved. Shelter Network also has a listing of its volunteer programs on its web site.
