A System of Care...

Camillus House has grown steadily over the years from a small soup kitchen into a full-service center offering what we call a comprehensive “system of care” for the poor and homeless — a seamless, step-by-step process designed to bring persons from a life on the streets all the way to permanent housing.

Fully integrated services are provided through multiple program areas.

• Compassionate Healing (substance abuse and mental health treatment)

• The Continuum of Housing (emergency, transitional, and permanent housing)

• Compassionate Hospitality (food, clothing, showers, outreach, case management, rent assistance)

• Camillus Health Concern (sister organization providing health care services including adult primary care, pediatrics and a number of specialties)
