Each night a hundred men will wait in line outside of our shelter for a meal,
clean clothes, and a safe place to sleep. But it is
so much more than that - it is a chance for CityTeam
to speak with each one of them and discuss how they
could change their life in the Recovery Program at

Sharing a meal together often breaks the barrier
of isloation and opens the heart and mind
to change.
