Jubilee Association, Inc.

Jubilee's mission is to help improve lives in a safe and caring environment. We address the needs of those experiencing homelessness, at risk of homelessness, or living in poverty in a welcoming atmosphere that extends dignity and respect to every guest. We work to help guests move from dependence to independence, from struggling to self-sufficiency, from powerless to empowered.

For 45 years, Jubilee has welcomed every guest - no questions asked - for a wide range of supportive services and programs. Open 7 days a week, 365 days a year, we serve breakfast, lunch and to-go meals, operate two food pantries, deliver groceries to homebound neighbors and run a mobile pantry at the local elementary school. Soon, food lockers will offer greater access to food pantry orders.

At Jubilee, guests can access showers, hygiene items and a clothing room where they can 'shop' for clothing, shoes and other essentials. We help guests secure identification documents, provide temporary transportation assistance for guests to attend medical appointments and work, and host partners who assist with housing, healthcare, employment and more.

Our Preventing Homelessness Program provides emergency financial aid for rent, utilities and unexpected costs to keep people housed. Through our Path to Self-Sufficiency Program, we walk alongside guests as they work toward long-term goals in housing, physical/mental health, finances, education and employment.

Our John Heinz Child Development Center provides high-quality, affordable childcare and preschool for children from 1-5 years old.
