SOS Emergency Shelter

Demand for Emergency Shelter in our community is high. 

We provide up to 90 days of emergency housing for families, of any make up, with children experiencing homelessness. Our shelter offers private sleeping quarters for families and daily meals. All households are connected with a case manager to collaboratively work towards exiting into housing and connect with other needed services. Due to having children, all guests will have background checks completed prior to entry. We cannot admit households with criminal sexual conduct or violent felonies within the last 5 years. 

To contact our shelter team, please call us daily at 248-920-6000 x3300 Monday-Friday at 10:00 a.m. or email us at shelter@lighthousemi.org.

Rehousing Services

All those interested in housing programs must call the Housing Resource Center at Community Housing Network to be screened for program eligibility. Your responses will guide the screening process to recommend options connecting you to the programs and resources to address housing needs. Each program has its own eligibility requirements, which is why callers receive a screening. The HRC specialists will figure out all options and connect you to the right programs  and resources based on eligibility and circumstance. 

Contact: HRC at 248-269-1335 or (toll-free) 1-866-282-3119, or email HRC@chninc.net.
