Urban Alchemy works with partner cities to provide shelter that meets the needs of both the community and our guests.
All of our interim housing options—including safe camping, safe parking, tiny homes, hotel-based shelters, congregate shelters, and other guest-centered alternatives to sleeping in public places—transform the lives of guests and the atmosphere of surrounding neighborhoods.
In camping, parking, and tiny home shelters, all guests enjoy private spaces, at least one meal per day, shower and toilet facilities, and activities to foster a sense of community. We also connect guests with services that can help them attain more permanent shelter, find employment, and otherwise improve their lives. We strive to make shelters welcoming, removing unnecessary barriers that push people away.
