    Homeless Services Team

    Homeless service specialists are the point of contact for individuals in need of shelter, housing or other related services. 

    Gresham's homeless services program has two main goals:

    1. Help people experiencing homelessness by connecting them to resources to be successful. 
    2. Ensure environmental health and community livability by protecting Gresham’s parks, trails and open spaces.
