Homeless Services is the foundation of Joppa. Our trained volunteers visit about 230 families and individuals every week—52 weeks per year—regardless of weather.
Our Outreach Program serves people living under bridges and in tents and vehicles. We build relationships; provide food, water and essentials; and connect them with resources related to housing, employment, mental health and more.
After they move into permanent housing, our Aftercare Program includes weekly visits, a Circle of Friends and other services to help clients take positive steps in their health, relationships and personal fulfillment.
The Homeless Resource Center offers a first step for people who want to rebuild their lives but don’t know where to begin.

- Public restroom
- Water filling station
- Coffee, food and microwave
- Clothing and shoes/boots
