Being a vibrant mission is not just about caring for the homeless in our city, it's about serving our friends who support our ministry. One of the ways we do this is by sharing the wonderful things that are happening in our shelters to encourage and prepare our clients for re-entering society, with obtainable goals for self-sufficiency.
As you read the blogs written by our staff and guest bloggers, your heart will be touched by the stories about life in the shelters and the experiences of the men, women and children living in them. You will find ways to connect that meet your charitable ideals and many opportunities to deepen your involvement with Star of Hope Mission.

Military veterans have given so much to our country. The V.I.P. program honors their sacrifice and commitment by providing help for the medical, mental health, and substance abuse issues that affect their lives. Over the 90-day duration of the program, the men are encouraged to register for outpatient services at the V.A. Hospital and its Homeless Veterans Program. The Veterans are also helped with obtaining benefits and employment, which enable them to move toward an independent and productive life.
