Interfaith network offers emergency shelter

CARLSBAD — Winter will be here soon and the Interfaith Shelter Network of San Diego (ISN) wants to let the community know that it will be responding with assistance for the homeless.

The Interfaith Shelter Network will provide emergency shelter beds in Carlsbad to homeless individuals and families during the cold-weather season from November through April. ISN partners, working with more than 100 churches and congregations throughout the county, will open their doors to San Diegans who have become homeless, but are willing and able to take the steps necessary to regain permanent housing. The Network consists of two programs:  HYPERLINK “http://www.interfaithshelter.org/rotational_shelter_program.php” The Rotational Shelter and  HYPERLINK “http://www.interfaithshelter.org/el_nido.php” El Nido Transitional Living.

Anyone wishing to apply to ISN’s Rotational Shelter program should call the Community Resource Center in Carlsbad at(619) 702-5399 ext. 1319 and speak with Leilani for more information.

The ISN’s annual fall fundraiser will be held Sept. 27 at the Chinese Community Church in Tierrasanta. Cost is $75 or $125 to include the Wine Exploration Table.
