Boston-area listings for emergency shelters, daytime services and meals, outreach services, and resources for special populations
If you are in need of emergency shelter, the Department of Housing and Community Development has homeless coordinators who may be able to help you and your family. You can apply for emergency assistance over the phone or in person.
Eligibility information, listing of statewide locations, and contact information.
If you or a member of your household are in immediate danger due to domestic violence, please call 911.
SafeLink’s state-of-the-art technology allows the advocate answering your call to keep you on the line while you are being connected to a shelter program in your area. This allows callers who are in danger to get help with a single call, rather than having to make numerous calls to different shelter programs across the state.
To ensure the safety of their residents, most shelters serving survivors of domestic violence do not post their addresses online. Please call a shelter or the SafeLink hotline to find a shelter close by.

The safehome program is a free, confidential, short-term (1-5 nights) space provided either by hotels or trained volunteers in their homes for a short amount of time. Having a place to go is the missing piece for many abused lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer and/or transgender (LGBQ/T) people who are trying to take their children and pets and leave their abusive partners. Our safe homes are located across the greater Boston area and offer a safe place to get started on the next course of action.
