About the Somerville Homeless Coalition:
Serving Somerville, Arlington, Belmont, Medford and Winchester
In 1985 the Somerville Homeless Coalition (SHC) was created by the local community’s grassroots response to the social crisis of homelessness. Neighbors, community activists, university students,
faith-based leaders, business supporters and city officials united to address the escalating problem of homelessness within Somerville. These collaborative efforts resulted in the opening of the city’s first
emergency shelter and the establishment of SHC.
Today, SHC transforms lives by providing services, support, resources and housing to well over 600 men, women, and children.
SHC’s emergency response programs include an Adult Shelter, Family Shelter, Food Program and “one-on-one” Case Management Services. SHC is also an innovator in the realm of “Housing First”. These housing programs involve Homeless Prevention and providing Affordable Housing with home-based Supportive Services to the most at-risk homeless individuals and families in our community
