I need a place to live
From emergency shelter tonight to stable housing — what's available, how long each option takes, and what to do first.
Step 1 of 5
Do you need a place to stay tonight?
If you need somewhere safe to sleep tonight, call 211 right now. They know which shelters have space and can help you get there.
You do not need ID to access most emergency shelters. You do not need to explain your whole situation. Just show up or call ahead.
If you're a woman, a young person, or fleeing violence, there are shelters specifically for you — 211 can match you to the right one.
