Beaver County 24-hour Men’s Emergency Shelter

We opened the doors of Beaver County’s first and only 24-hour men’s emergency shelter in June 2023 to fill a critical gap in our county’s homelessness solutions.

Our fully-staffed, 24-hour men’s shelter is intentionally designed to provide a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment as well as wrap-around services to help ensure that guests are able to successfully transition to permanent housing, independence, and ultimately, a future of hope and possibilities.

The shelter was a natural progression in TCBC’s work to prevent and end homelessness in Beaver County since 2016.

SHELTER LOCATION

697 State Street in Vanport, PA 15009

The main entrance and main parking lot are in the back of the building.
