Resources At Our Meal Sites
In addition to cooking and serving meals, the Gathering seeks to respond to other needs of our guests when possible, including mental health, medical, housing and food share assistance along with street supply distributions. Our preference is to deliver such services through collaborative programming with other Milwaukee organizations.

Provided during the breakfast meal at The Gathering at Running Rebels (1300 W Fond Du Lac Ave). The Gathering collaborates with Milwaukee County Housing Division providing outreach to any individuals currently experiencing homelessness. If an individual is without shelter, or occupying temporary local shelter, an outreach worker will work one-on-one with our guests to learn their needs and assist in any way possible. Through this involvement with The Gathering, the Housing Division has helped dozens of individuals move from the streets into permanent housing.
To learn more about housing options for former inmates, as well as tips for maintaining healthy boundaries when staying with family or friends after release, review Bankrate’s article on Securing Housing After Incarceration.
Additionally, Section 8 housing provides affordable housing options to low-income families. With more than 80% of American households earning less than $20,000 per year, it's even more important for families to understand the facts and fully understand their eligibility. Bankrate has created a guide including Section 8 facts and statistics, affordable housing options, key tenant rights and Section 8 eligibility and resources.
