Project Homeless Connect 2026

Once a year, in the dead of winter, HUD performs a count of those individuals experiencing homelessness. The Free Store Ministry is excited to perform the count once again for Laclede County.

Project Homeless Connect is a one-day event based on a national service model to reduce as many barriers as possible to help the homeless or near homeless become self-sufficient. We would love to provide lots of supplies and connect area services with those that struggle in Laclede County. We will be offering to survey those in attendance in an attempt to provide the most accurate count for our area. This is a very important event. Please help us spread the news and join us in this wonderful outreach event!

Lunch will be served from Noon to 1 pm. This event is free to the public.
