    HIS-OC Home

    Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County (HIS-OC) currently runs four programs that assist people who are homeless or at risk of being homeless. Our shelters and supportive service programs provide assistance to our community’s most vulnerable population. We are different from an emergency shelter or single program shelter because we provide a longer-term guided process to achieve self-sufficiency. Our programs require a commitment on the part of our clients and provide tools so that a return to homelessness is prevented. Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County integrates job training, therapy, case management, and education into a continuum of care that addresses each client’s specific needs.

    Isaiah House - Catholic Worker

    We are four Catholic Workers, hundreds of guests and countless volunteers. We have been brought together in an attempt to discover, “who Jesus is” through action and prayer.

    We have no program except to care for our brothers and sisters as we would care for Christ. We seek to offer sustenance for the body, but also for the heart and soul. We reach out to those who are forgotten and alone, hoping to offer healing through friendship and commitment. We try to help one another to be living signs of Christ’s love by doing the corporal works of mercy at a personal sacrifice.

    We do our work as a gift, and share the gifts we receive directly with the poor. We offer good food, over 3000 meals each week. We offer our home as a place where all can be transformed by serving those in need. We offer an open door to those most at risk on the streets. We offer clothes and other necessities to those facing homelessness.
