Countywide Homeless Shelters

Other programs & resources
This list provides information on housing for the homeless in San Diego County. To learn about shelter openings and for other emergency housing information, please call the United Way Info Line: 619.230.0997. Each type of housing (Emergency shelters, Permanent supportive housing, Transitional shelters, Hotel vouchers, and Winter shelters) is organized by region and then city. The ‘Beds’ column shows the number of beds at the shelter, not the number of empty beds. Additionally, refer to the ‘Clientele’ and ‘Special Needs’ population to determine whether you are eligible for service.
