The Shade Tree Incorporated

The Shade Tree has been serving Southern Nevada for 27 years, providing hope and strength to women and children facing crisis. Over the years, The Shade Tree has become the largest shelter of its kind in the state, and the only 24-hour accessible shelter designed specifically to meet the needs of women and children in Southern Nevada. With 364 permanent beds, The Shade Tree provides safe shelter to more than 6,000 women and children annually. Our doors are open to any woman, with or without children, and male and female unaccompanied youth who lack a safe, adequate place to live. From the moment they take that first step of courage to enter the shelter, they are guided on a path to help regain their dignity and identity, while escaping the cycle of homelessness or violence. Though the core mission of The Shade Tree is to provide safe shelter, the organization also provides additional programs and services to assist with recovery and healing.
