The Committee on the Shelterless (COTS) offers a wide range of services to individuals and families facing homelessness. They provide emergency shelter for adults and families, transitional and permanent housing solutions, and comprehensive services such as case management, counseling, job search assistance, and life skills training. COTS also offers hot meals and food boxes through its food program, while its Children's Program provides after-school activities and homework assistance for children in COTS housing. Their focus is on offering a hand up, rather than a handout, to empower people to transition out of homelessness and towards self-sufficiency.
