Description:

Lydia's House is a venture or the Richland County Ministerial Association to provide emergency shelter for homeless persons on winter nights. Homeless persons, those with no place to stay out of the elements for the night will be provided with a warm place to sleep between 6:00pm and 8:00am, Monday through Friday nights, beginning January 3 and ending April 13. There are no arrangements for Saturday and Sunday evenings

The site of the shelter will be rotating between area churches. Call for current locations. Requirements and rules will be explained a the time of check-in. Residents have a 15 night cumulative maximum for a one year period.
