Our Roots

In 1933 the doors were opened to a homeless camp for men seeking work. It was one of three sites in Kansas. The south main street location had space for 500 men. When the WPA began, these men received real wage paying jobs. The men's talents provided infrastructure in the community; buildings and landscaping work done in Carey Park, work at the municipal airport, bridge work, canals and construction of buildings at the state fairgrounds in our community. New Beginnings carries on and builds on this tradition.

TODAY

Our process- "On the road to where you want to be" has 3 parts

From Crisis to Stability

The process allows a person to determine the physical resources necessary to rebuild their life, make a plan and set that plan into motion. The goal is to help the individual or family to stabilize the crisis that contributed to becoming homeless.

The Road to Your Goals

Once the basic needs have been met and the trauma that clouded decision-making is healing. There is time to reflect, plan, and move on. Standing in this median spot, it is possible to see in all directions; the past, the present, and options for the future.
