Tonight more than 3,500 Long Islanders, including nearly 1,500 children, will have no place to sleep. Many live with mental illness, are disabled veterans, have multiple diagnoses or are victims of domestic violence.
They want to get back on their feet, find jobs, join a community, but do not know where to begin.
Since 1985, Mercy Haven has provided temporary and permanent housing, and critical services, to these and other populations in-crisis, serving over 300 adults and children each year, in the fight to end chronic homelessness and mental illness stigma on Long Island.
Your gift in any amount supports critical housing and services for Long Islanders in-crisis.
Donate NowI am so grateful for this organization and everything it does for those who are hurting. It’s in my prayers every day. You guys pulled me up from a life that was darkness and showed me the light.
Every morning when I get up, I look around the apartment. It still seems surreal. Sobriety. A roof over my head. A good community. I want to thank you, Sister Pat — for being here, for what you do.
Our work here helps our residents learn the skills to live independently. Even when I’ve gone home feeling really tired after a long day, I sit back and think how satisfied I am because I know we really help people.
