What We Do
MICAH House was established in 1986 as an emergency family shelter with a mission to provide a safe and nurturing environment with support services for families and individuals experiencing the crisis of homelessness.

Families and single women who enter MICAH House are provided an array of services including nutritious meals, counseling resources, an on-site health clinic, and a trauma-informed (BUDDY) play program.
