The Road Home (agency)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Road Home is a private non-profit social services agency in Salt Lake City, Utah focused on providing assistance to homeless and low-income individuals and families. The Road Home was established as the Travelers Aid Society in 1923 with the mission of providing assistance to stranded travelers, unescorted youth, and runaway minors. As the emphasis of the agency changed toward providing emergency services, self-sufficiency programs, children's programs, and assistance to the homeless population of Utah's urban center, the agency's Community Advisory Board and Board of Trustees voted to change the name to The Road Home, support and shelter for overcoming homelessness.
The Road Home operates out of The Salt Lake Community Shelter, the largest homeless shelter in Utah, which is located west of the city's historic central business district.
