Gatheirng for Women - Monterey

Organization Description

Gathering for Women - Monterey (GFW) supports homeless and housing-insecure women with vital resources and a caring community. Along the pathway out of homelessness, GFW provides the care, support, and dignity a woman needs to remain safe and healthcy as she seeks affordable housing and a more sustainable and secure future. We provide hot, nutritious meals; clothing; showers; comprehensive case management support; limited emergency assistance; access to free, basic health care; and connection to other community services and providers.

The site has video and audio surveillance, but other, personal photos and videos are not allowed without a signed release form.
