Project Home provides 24/7 support for families facing homelessness.
Project Home provides emergency shelter and rapid exit case management services for area families facing homelessness.
In March 2021, Interfaith Action formed a partnership with the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet and Ramsey County to move Project Home to the Provincial House on Randolph Avenue in Saint Paul. In this supportive environment, families have a safe place to live and assistance with finding employment and permanent, affordable housing.
While Project Home is not currently able to offer shelter in faith communities, as it did for more than 20 years, many houses of worship continue to provide vital volunteer support at the Provincial House, a location that has allowed Interfaith Action to double its capacity to serve families experiencing homelessness. Learn more about the move.

“Volunteering at Project Home is our chance to be hospitable in the same way my parents were. It’s really important that my kids see it as hospitality. Hospitality is really all about forgetting oneself and attending to the needs of the other.”
—Peter Distelzweig, Church of Saint Mark volunteer
