Carolina Hill is a transitional shelter for homeless families operated by a private, non-profit (Chapter 180, 501(c) 3) corporation. Since 1988, we have provided services designed to break the cycle of repeated homelessness experienced by many families. Our caring and committed staff can accommodate families whose members may have special needs (e.g., developmentally disabled or handicapped). Our
physical facility and its location are ideal for a shelter program with a fenced yard, recreation building and living spaces ideally suited for larger families who cannot find shelter elsewhere. The average length of stay for a family at Carolina Hill is three months, during which the parents receive counseling in order to examine the reasons for their homelessness and to avoid similar situations in the future. The program houses up to 17 families at a time.
