CHARITY RESPONSE TO REVIEW:

Economic times are uncertain and we are seeing an ever increasing need for our services. Simpson Housing Services is impelled to plan and act boldly. We are stretching our capacities and resources to do more and do it at an even higher level of quality. Uniquely in the Twin Cities metro area, Simpson Housing Services provides a full continuum of supportive housing services to end chronic homelessness: Emergency shelters for men and women (separated by gender). Permanent, subsidized, supportive rental housing for single men and women who have been homeless long-term, with a unique focus on the needs of single women. Subsidized, supportive rental housing for families with children, both single site and scattered site, both transitional and permanent housing. Simpson Housing is committed to the wise stewardship of financial contributions and to accountability in all our operations. We invite our stakeholders to visit our website, www.simpsonhousing.org, or to call us at 612.874.8683, and to tour our facilities.
