Everything about Raphael House totally explained


Raphael House is an innovative shelter in the Tenderloin, San Francisco, California which provides transitional housing and support programs for parents and children who are suffering from homelessness.
   Established in 1971 at Gough and McAllister Streets, Raphael House was the first shelter for homeless families in the city. It has been located on Sutter Street since 1977. It is a non-profit organization which accepts no government funding, relying upon San Francisco Bay Area philanthropy which has become increasingly innovative. (Not all offers of support, however, are accepted.)
   MISSION Raphael House is dedicated to helping at-risk children and their parents achieve stable housing and financial independence, while strengthening family bonds and personal dignity.
   ABOUT US Established in 1971 as the first shelter in San Francisco for families experiencing homelessness, Raphael House has a dedicated staff and Board of Directors from the local community, along with resident and non-resident staff. Since its opening, Raphael House has aided more than 17,000 children and their parents.
   From the moment a family enters Raphael House until long after they depart to stable housing, we offer the resources and relationships necessary for children and their parents to achieve a lifetime of success.
   Programs • Residential Shelter Program • AfterCare Program • Children’s Program
   FUNDING Raphael House relies solely on private sources to meet its annual budget. Support is received from individuals, foundations, corporations, businesses, civic groups and churches that are committed to promoting stability for at-risk families. We neither seek nor accept federal, state, or municipal funding.
