Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing held a grand opening & ribbon ceremony to celebrate their new supportive housing facility “Interfaith Crossing” on Monday, July 1st.
The ceremony was held at the new facility located on South DuPont Highway in Felton.
Interfaith Crossing is the result of Dover Interfaith’s efforts to create housing that is available to men moving from homelessness to independence. They find that many men need highly affordable housing in a small, supportive community of men who have faced similar challenges and who can continue to access the services of Dover Interfaith if needed.
Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing began in 2008 and currently operates a 34-bed shelter for homeless men, a daytime Resource Center for homeless adults, and – with the addition of Interfaith Crossing – 60 beds of supportive housing. In the 11 years since they opened, they have sheltered and assisted about 3,000 homeless men and are committed to continuing to operate the shelter and seek ways to develop highly affordable housing for those moving from homelessness to productive and purposeful lives.
The Central Delaware Chamber of Commerce sponsored this event.
