    Background on the Charities:
    • Community Human Services (CHS) "Since 1969, Community Human Services (CHS) has provided professional, affordable mental health and substance abuse counseling and recovery services to the residents of Monterey County. Virtually all of the services provided by CHS address underlying conditions or root causes of personal, family and community problems, whether it's addiction, domestic violence, mental illness, emotional health, homelessness, child abuse, or any number of problems that people have trouble solving on their own. These services focus on the entire family and include programs for people of all ages."
    • Shelter Outreach Plus Shelter Outreach Plus began in 1978 as Women for Women. Based in Salinas, it was the first emergency shelter for single women created in Salinas. Over time, Shelter Outreach Plus has emerged as one of the largest, single providers of homeless and domestic violence services within Monterey County available to the general public. The agency provides the entire range of services to homeless individuals and families, to include street outreach (distribution of food, clothing and blankets, toiletries), emergency shelter and transitional housing combined with supportive services. SOP's programs are designed specifically to help move people forward through a Continuum of Services, towards sustainable self-sufficiency.
