La Mesita is a 30-unit family shelter that provides temporary emergency housing, case management, job development, licensed childcare (by the Department of Economic Security) and ancillary services to help homeless families with minor aged children become self-reliant. Infants and preschool children may receive childcare services at La Mesita’s Child Development Center, while school-aged youth may participate in La Mesita’s Youth Development Center. Services are provided at no cost to families.
La Mesita provides two 1,250 square-foot units to accommodate larger families and/or residents with disabilities. La Mesita is the only emergency shelter in the East Valley providing a broad array of services to homeless families.
Homeless shelter services can be accessed by contacting the nearest CAP office (through your city’s Human Services Office).
