Western Dairyland Homeless Services & Housing First

Western Dairyland operates seven homeless shelters in Buffalo, Eau Claire, Jackson and Trempealeau counties for families with children. Their first priority is to provide a safe place to stay for homeless families with children while trying to locate permanent housing and help them toward self-sufficiency. Housing First is a new program that provides housing and case management services to chronically homeless individuals and families in the city of Eau Claire. Volunteers are needed for moving clients into apartments/houses, lawn care, shoveling, painting, home maintenance and client rides.
