anchor Description
This project includes acquisition and construction of a building to provide congregation, meals, and medical and case management services.
anchorEstimated Schedule
Project in final construction phase for ongoing facility repairs.
anchor Justification
The County facilities supporting homeless sheltering and associated services are insufficient for the current population and future projection. This project will acquire an existing building and retrofit the facility to include space for congregation, meal service, medical offices, and case management offices. The prior facility that provided these services for men, located at Taft Court in Rockville, is no longer available. This facility will ensure that a full complement of homeless services is available to the men and women seeking emergency shelter in Montgomery County.
