Year-round programs
Homeward Bound of Marin’s year-round shelter programs serve single adults and veterans as well as parents or guardians with children under 18. We are part of the countywide “coordinated entry” partnership to match people who need shelter with the most appropriate option available.
Coordinated Entry System
We participate in the Coordinated Entry System that provides an integrated, community-wide process for access to housing services in Marin County. This process is designed to ensure that people who lack housing are connected with the most appropriate solution available while prioritizing those with the most acute needs.
