The Navigation Center: A Haven for the Determined


Although San Francisco has two shelters that collectively hold more than 300 beds each, these shelters can divide up families and couples, and can discourage pets and personal belongings. These shelters also do not offer services to help the homeless. The Navigation Center serves the homeless from the encampments in the Mission District and offers a variety of services, comfort, and convenience while many successfully find stable housing placements.
