What makes Sheltering Arms Coalition unique?<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s all about relationships. Sheltering Arms Coalition desires to empower the community around us into a lifestyle of service alongside the homeless. We will achieve this vision through taking a relational approach for connecting with our homeless brothers and sisters, instead of a transactional approach. When we bring an individual into a community with others, we truly begin to make a sustainable impact on their lives. Sheltering Arms Coalition believes that the single greatest cause of homelessness is a profound, catastrophic loss of family. That\u2019s why our focus at Sheltering Arms Coalition is to do more than just provide adequate housing. We are developing a community with revolutionary services and attention to an individual\u2019s relational needs at a fraction of the cost of traditional housing initiatives. We seek to empower our residents to build relationships with others, and to experience healing and restoration as part of engaging with a broader community.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What is the difference between housing and community?<\/span><\/h2>\n
\n
Sheltering Arms Coalition has a basic philosophy that housing alone will never solve homelessness, but community will. Most often, the people found on the streets have a regular, albeit dysfunctional, community, even though they have no houses or shelter to live in. So the fundamental component that human beings need is human interaction; and human interaction occurs within community.<\/div>\n
