About this planning and maintenance break

During this planning and maintenance break we will be focusing on staff training, program evaluations, software updates, and more. Our goal is to provide the highest level of service to our community, and this is a vital step to continue and enhance our work. The Light House has been serving over 30% more neighbors in need each year since the beginning of the pandemic and our staff and volunteers have worked tirelessly to rise to this occasion. As an organization, we have been standing in the gap for four years, and this operational planning period is necessary to best meet the challenges of increasing demand and changing needs of the neighbors we serve.

Our staff and Board of Directors will be doing frequent assessments of our planning and implementation and will open each program back up as soon as possible. Information about opening dates for each of these program areas will be updated on our website.

Thank you for your patience as we take this necessary step to continue providing these services, and to better serve the growing and changing needs of our community.
