About
We believe that everybody has the right to safe and affordable housing. We celebrate and embrace the uniqueness and dignity of every person. We encourage people to draw upon their strengths and promote the power of self-advocacy. We advocate against the injustices of society that cause homelessness and poverty. We strive to create a collaborative community with the individuals we serve, within Simpson, and with the greater community. An overview of our programs Uniquely in the metro area, we provide a full continuum of supportive housing services to end chronic homelessness Emergency shelters for men and women (separated by gender) Permanent, subsidized, supportive rental housing for single men and women who have been homeless long-term, with a unique focus on the needs of single women Subsidized, supportive rental housing for families with children, both single site and scattered site, both transitional and permanent housing. We educate the public about people who experience homelessness and the social justice imperative to end homelessness. The Simpson Transitional Housing program serves adults with children in scattered site-housing throughout Hennepin County. Families receive assistance in finding housing and support in developing the skills to maintain stability. Every school-age child in the program is assigned an Education Support Advocate to help ensure success in school. Every night in our men\'s and our women\'s shelters, Simpson offers a bed, a warm meal, a hot shower, and the dignity of being addressed by name to 60 people experiencing homelessness.
