I was homeless since I was 27 years old for 8 years and it's not fun to be out there especially for females. But I thank God I'm not in the streets anymore I been off the streets for 4 years and now I got a job... And I love what I'm doing... if I could do it yall could do it too. Amen to yall of yall.. just keep your head up high

The situation is not good for the people that gather there for refuge.perty sad so I go with a group of people of diverse faith to do what we can 1st. & 3rd Saturday each month.

Took someone here that need services due to them being Homeless and I was happy to see all the services they offered. You can apply for housing, food stamps, Gold Card ( Harris County Health ) Take a Shower , Get your laundry done and have a good lunch also this place serves breakfast ! Unlimited water, ice tea and ice

It's been a long time since I ever went to the beacon. Mainly because I'm no longer in Houston, but I can give you my experience and the experience of my wife. We used to go to the beacon on a fairly regular basis while we were homeless in Houston. We even attempted to get housing help through the beacon. Not only did we get the runaround multiple times, not only were we called a liars by the person that was supposed to help us, but we were also eventually set up to fail. We actually got housed, but then 5 months later we were illegally evicted from the apartment. By that point I was done with Houston and the beacon. They might be trying to do some good things, but I can't recommend it. If I was homeless in Houston right now, I try to find a way to go somewhere else. Because they're not really doing enough down there for people.

One of the very few places that are actually helping homeless people who need and want help. They have alot of services like showers, laundry, mail, food, and many other services. I'm "In between homes" (temporarily homeless). They are helping me now! Thank you!
