As our organization continues to grow and evolve, we’re preparing for an important transition in the year ahead.

In 2026, Community Supported Shelters will close our two Communities near the Eugene Mission. This change comes as the Mission expands its Life Skills Program, an investment in services that aligns with our shared goal of supporting individuals on their path toward stability. Our clients have already begun transitioning into other Communities, with each move guided by thoughtful, individualized planning to ensure continuity of care and support.

At the same time, we are stepping into an exciting new chapter. Phase 1 construction is now complete at our new building on 10th Place. We are deeply grateful to Essex Construction and GMA Architects for their partnership and care in bringing this project to life. This new space will allow us to bring more services together, deepen our impact, and better serve our community.

We will also be saying goodbye to our Grant Street location, which has been home to our organization since the very beginning. That space holds years of history, growth, and heart, and we carry that legacy with us into what comes next.

As we complete this transition, we look forward to welcoming you into the new space. We plan to host an open house this summer once the move is complete.

Change can be bittersweet, but it also creates room for new opportunities. We are energized by what lies ahead and remain committed to helping our neighbors rebuild their lives through intentional community.

With gratitude and hope,

Heather and Blake
