Mission
Because housing is a human right, Immaculate Conception Shelter & Housing Corporation will provide housing and decent shelter with unconditional love to those without other options.

Background
Immaculate’s mission has always focused on men who are most vulnerable to life on the streets of Hartford, including people with HIV/AIDS and those with severe substance use problems and mental health issues. Since 1981, Immaculate has been providing emergency shelter and support services to thousands of homeless men. In keeping with the mission of the organization, the ICSHC Board of Directors and staff have reframed the goals and work of the organization, approving a business plan that transitions ICSHC from an agency focused primarily on emergency shelter services to a Housing First Model.

The agency also runs a scattered site Housing First program for individuals. Immaculate Conception Shelter & Housing Corporation primarily serves individuals in the Hartford area.
