Hospitality House, a regional nonprofit housing and homeless services agency, works in seven rural North Carolina counties (Watauga, Wilkes, Ashe, Avery, Alleghany, Mitchell, Yancey) providing housing, shelter, food access, homelessness prevention, street outreach, counseling, medical care, and crisis assistance. Since 1984, the mission of Hospitality House has been to rebuild lives and strengthen communities by providing a safe, nurturing, healthy environment in which individuals and families experiencing homelessness and poverty-related crises are equipped to become self-sufficient and productive. Following Hurricane Helene, Hospitality House has been engaged in providing services to survivors of Hurricane Helene. Golden LEAF grant funds will be used for case management, utility assistance, and housing assistance for survivors of Hurricane Helene.
