Honor their memory with a charitable gift.

Our mission is to break the generational cycle of poverty for Latino immigrants and their families by lifting barriers to their success. We believe that everyone has the right to achieve their dreams. Every day, we partner with Latino immigrants and their families to best meet their needs and support their goals — from putting food on the table, to becoming U.S. citizens, to learning English, to graduating from college to gaining skills that lead to quality jobs with career-path employment opportunities. In parallel to our high-impact direct services, we address the root causes of inequity through bold, place-based initiatives. Together, we’re building a Marin where everyone can live, learn, work, and succeed.

At Citizens Inn, we work on an individual basis to help families and individuals who are experiencing a housing crisis or food insecurity. Our full spectrum of services provides comprehensive assistance to each person based on their specific needs. Citizens Inn has served families and individuals across the North Shore for over 39 years. Our programs – Citizens Inn Between, Citizens Inn Transition, Citizens Inn Homes, and Citizens Inn Haven from Hunger – are designed to help families and individuals prepare for and transition to a sustainable life. Through our work, we not only provide a safe place to stay and a meal on the table, but offer tools to empower families and individuals to find permanent solutions to break the patterns of instability in their lives.

Our vision is that every child should have a bed to sleep in. Every family should have a table to gather around for meals. Every adult should have a comfortable place to sit after a long day at work, or when recovering from illness or surgery. Furniture Sharehouse (FS), Westchester County's first and only furniture bank, "nourishes" families by helping them turn empty apartments into real homes. Furniture Sharehouse collects gently-used furniture from the public and redistributes these pieces for free to impoverished Westchester families, enabling them to create a comfortable, stable home where they can rebuild their lives. Basic furnishings are the foundations of a home, helping people regain self-respect, dignity, and most of all, hope for the future.
