Office of Homeless Services

Providing emergency housing and other services to people who are homeless and to those at risk of homelessness.

Office of Homeless Services

What we do

The Office of Homeless Services works with more than 60 homeless housing and service providers, as well as city, state, and federal governments. Together, we make up Philadelphia’s homeless service system.

This system provides homelessness prevention and diversion aid, as well as emergency and temporary housing, to people who are experiencing homelessness and those at risk of homelessness.

Get help

Are you facing homelessness? Contact the Prevention, Diversion & Intake Unit to see if you qualify for help. There are two ways to get in touch with our intake social workers and case managers:

  1. Call the Homelessness Prevention InfoLine at (215) 686-7177 and follow the instructions. Due to high call volume, it could take more than 72 hours to receive a call back.
  2. Visit a City-funded intake center.
