MISSION
The Homeless Center for Strafford County (HCSC) is a seasonal shelter providing safety, support, and self-sufficiency to women, children, and families of our community.
A secondary objective of HCSC is to empower through professional case management, referral services, and transitional housing.
The Center's commitment goes beyond simply providing a roof over a family’s head; we strive to provide families with the tools to get back on their feet and into permanent, sustainable housing.

HISTORYHCSC is a volunteer-based 501(c)(3) organization providing services for homeless women and families during winter months.
The Strafford County Emergency Shelter Coalition was formed in 1998 by a group of committed citizens who recognized the desperate need for family shelter during the coldest months in New Hampshire. For the first 3 years, the shelter was located in the Salvation Army gym in Rochester NH as an overnight shelter. In the summer of 2001, Waste Management of NH donated the use of a 6-bedroom residential home. Over 80% of our homeless residents obtain either transitional or permanent housing. |
RESOURCES FOR THE HOMELESSHCSC helps single women; single parents with legal birth certificates or court-appointed guardians of children; and families-married or not married- if both adults are legal parents of children entering the Shelter and can show birth certificates proving they are legal parents.
