About HCSS


Hampshire County Shelter Sunday partners provide a spectrum of resources and services intended to support our unhoused neighbors, assist with ending cycles of homelessness, and reduce housing and food insecurity in Hampshire County.

In Northampton, MANNA Community Kitchen provides nutritious meals and gathering spaces for those experiencing hunger and food insecurity, while the Hampshire Support Alliance works tirelessly to help unhoused individuals live with dignity by providing services, creating housing, and advocating for those experiencing homelessness.

In Hadley and Amherst, Craig’s Doors provides overnight shelter, comprehensive case management, resource assistance, low-threshold housing, and more. Also in Amherst, Not Bread Alone fosters a caring and safe environment in which its guests can eat and chat with friends over community-style family meals three days a week.
