About Us

A non-denominational 501(c)3 non-profit organization, Shalom House provides a temporary 19-bed shelter for women and children who have nowhere else to go. The shelter is located in the City of Harrisburg. As an emergency shelter, Shalom House provides for their basic needs: a bed, assistance with food resources, clothing, health and hygiene supplies, and a temporary address and telephone number.

Shalom House's extended case management services help women move toward self-sufficiency, to never become homeless again. Experienced caregivers know when to listen, when to hug, and when to give advice. Shalom House services include:

  • case management

  • referral services

  • life skills training

  • computer facilities to expand current skills and prepare a resume

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide emergency shelter and holistic support to women and children facing homelessness. Through temporary housing, case management, and essential services, we empower our residents to achieve self-sufficiency and build a stable future, breaking the cycle of homelessness.
