Serving Boston's homeless population since Pine Street Inn is the largest shelter and resource for the homeless in New England.  The organization offers emergency services as well as a focus on helping individuals overcome obstacles and receive counseling and education in order to permanently leave the shelter behind.
 
Emergency programs include:
  • Two Emergency Shelters -  Together, the men and women's inns shelter 700 homeless individuals each night. Along with hot meals and a safe place to sleep, these shelters offer guests health care, counseling, job training and other services.
  • Daytime Outreach - teams go out on foot across the city offering advocacy, medical and psychiatric services to homeless individuals
  • Nighttime Outreach - teams in vans travel the city offering food, blankets, medical assistance and compassion
  • Overnight Drop-in Center - offers food, clothing, health care, counseling and safe shelter each night for 60 to 70 homeless adults.
  • Healthcare - through collaboration with Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program, top-notch medical care is offered for acute and chronic health issues
 
Long-term programs in job training and literacy help today's homeless population transition to stable employment and permanent housing.
