Open Door Program

Our Open Door program welcomes people in with a safe and supportive place to rest, receive care, and have their immediate needs met. By walking alongside those we serve and creating a foundation of safety and stability, we create space for deeper, lasting transformation and the possibility of a new beginning.


What We Do.

How We Do It.


At Gateway, we believe people cannot fully pursue transformation when their basic needs are going unmet. Our Social Care program works to understand and support the physical, emotional, and mental needs of those we serve. By helping address these needs, we seek to create a safe and supportive foundation where individuals and families can pursue holistic, multi-generational transformation.


  • Physical Needs

    Gateway provides subsidies to qualifying participants to help meet essential needs such as food, rent, household bills, transportation, childcare, and more—helping create greater stability and space to pursue lasting transformation.

  • Mental Needs

    Gateway partners with counselors, therapists, and other mental and emotional well-being professionals to provide a holistic approach to those experiencing challenges that may make it difficult to pursue lasting, multi-generational transformation.

  • Emotional Needs

    Gateway provides a sense of community that many of the people in our programs may not have experienced before. Through activities, outings, and events, we create opportunities to build meaningful relationships with others who share similar experiences and life circumstances—fostering connection, belonging, and mutual support along the way.

  • Emergency Housing

    Gateway provides short-term emergency housing for individuals who are transitioning out of unsafe or difficult situations and have nowhere else to stay. Whether someone is experiencing homelessness, leaving an abusive relationship, or facing another crisis, the our house offers a safe and supportive place to stay while they take their next steps toward stability.
