Using hotels and motels for shelter during COVID-19

Shelter-in-place protocols have forced agencies to modify how they provide services and resources, and we're seeing hotels and motels being used more and more to provide critical shelter for survivors. This month we're spotlighting resources to support your programs, and we're asking you to tell us what you need to provide shelter for your clients.

If your agency has a hotel or motel program, consider inviting your supporters to download and use the SafeNight app to make tax-deductible donations that cover the cost of your agency's hotel nights.

Contact us for more information about using the Safe Shelter Collaborative to manage SafeNight requests.
