Jefferson City Project Homeless Connect is a one-day event based on a national service model to reduce as many barriers as possible to help the homeless or near homeless become self-sufficient. The mission of Project Homeless Connect is to connect those in Jefferson City experiencing homelessness with the care they need to move forward. The event is located at the 300 Block of East Capitol and is hosted by First United Methodist, First Baptist, and First Christian, with resources in all three buildings.

The idea grew from The Homelessness Task Force in 2014,.We have partnered with city leaders, community-based organizations, and volunteers through Jefferson City to bring essential and otherwise hard to access services to people living on the streets. These collaborations are at the heart of what we do. Many volunteers come together every year to make our programs possible. Homelessness is a community issue, and as such requires a community solution.
As we stride forward, PHC envisions a day when all people are cared for and housed. To this end, our core purposes are to provide connections and care that lead toward an end of homelessness for our neighbors and to build a more compassionate Jefferson City.
