Strategizing and empowering Florida’s Big Bend to end homelessness through collaboration, data, and community-driven solutions
Help Assessments: Temporarily Paused
We’ve seen an overwhelming number of people reach out for assessments, and we want to be honest with you about where things stand.
Right now, we can’t take new assessment appointments. This isn’t because we don’t want to help. It’s because we’re at capacity and adding more names to a queue we can’t move quickly would mean making promises we can’t keep. You deserve better than that.
If you’re in crisis right now, please don’t wait on us. Call 211 Big Bend for immediate support, or go to your nearest emergency shelter.
We’re working to reopen assessments as soon as we can. Check back here for updates, or contact your local service provider, who may have information sooner than we do.
You are not invisible to us. We see the need, and we’re doing everything we can to meet it.

Volunteer, advocate, partner, or join—your support matters.
We create lasting change by working with partner agencies to help individuals and families access safe, permanent housing while addressing immediate needs through the distribution of essential supplies like food, clothing, and hygiene products. Our coordinated efforts connect unsheltered individuals to vital services and housing opportunities, leveraging a data-driven approach to improve outcomes and drive impactful strategies. Through collaboration and innovation, we’re making homelessness in our community rare, brief, and nonrecurring.
