Goodwill Industries Of Northern Michigan Inc

Housing and homeless services - the organization's housing and homeless services programs help over 1,500 people a year access shelter and housing. Street outreach engages people experiencing unsheltered homelessness where they are to offer help finding safe and secure housing. The goodwill inn provides temporary emergency shelter for adults and families experiencing homelessness. Carson square and east bay flats provide permanent supportive housing for people experiencing homelessness, people with special needs, and people fleeing domestic violence using site-based vouchers. Patriot place provides emergency shelter for veterans transitioning from homelessness to housing. Our housing-based case managers provide support to people once they move into housing to help them maintain long-term housing stability.

Food services - the organization's food services programs work to increase food security for people who struggle to access the nutritious food they need. Our food rescue program rescues, harvests, repacks, and distributes over 2 million pounds of food a year. We pick up 8,000 pounds of food a day from grocery stores, bakeries, and farms, and deliver it on the same day to over 78 food pantries and community meal sites, at no cost to them. 80% of the food we deliver is fresh and frozen bread, dairy, meat, fruits, and vegetables full of nutrients needed by the 16,000 children, seniors, families, and people in our region who face food insecurity. Our good meals food service program at the goodwill inn prepares over 150,000 meals a year for people experiencing homelessness, people in recovery, and seniors in nmcaa's meals on wheels program.

Job services - the organization's workforce development program provides the organization's employees with growth and development opportunities so they can expand their personal and professional capabilites and take on larger challenges with goodwill or in positive destinations beyond goodwill.
