Description
Since 1981, Operation Nightwatch has been providing radical hospitality to alleviate the isolation experienced by those living on the streets. They also distribute essential items and offer drop-in mental health support to those who request it. Their hospitality center is one of the few open at this time of night, when resources and connection are hard to come by. Their volunteers are essential to providing the services they offer - be it coffee and a meal, a blanket and socks, or conversation and connection.
They are currently offering off-site volunteer programs as well as their more limited direct service opportunities. They understand that their late evenings can make it difficult for some people to make it during their hours of operation, so they have created opportunities for those who can help remotely and on their own time.
