At the Tioga County Homeless Initiative, we are committed to welcoming all individuals in Tioga County who are experiencing homelessness, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, identity, or background. We proudly support individuals, families, and veterans, and strive to create an environment where everyone feels seen, respected, and valued.
Each guest who enters the Tioga County Homeless Initiative is provided with more than just shelter. They receive a clean, safe bed, a warm and welcoming environment, and a hearty evening meal. At the heart of our mission is a deep commitment to compassion and inclusion. Everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and respect, and we are here to offer support, encouragement, and hope to every person who walks through our doors.
The purpose of the Tioga County Homeless Initiative is to:
PROVIDE A WARM, SAFE, AND CARING ENVIRONMENT
for individuals and families who experience homelessness.
The Tioga County Homeless Initiative (TCHI) is a faith-based nonprofit organization in Mansfield, Pennsylvania, that began its work in 2011 and was officially registered in 2012. It provides emergency shelter and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Tioga County. With help from local churches, volunteers, and community partners, TCHI offers a safe place to stay, meals, and assistance with housing, employment, and healthcare. In 2024, they opened a new fully accessible facility to better serve those in need and continue their mission of offering compassion, stability, and hope.
A warm, safe, and caring environment is next!
We’re more than a group; we’re a family. Come as you are, explore faith, and find support through prayer, friendship, and real conversation. We’re here to help you grow spiritually and thrive in life, with support for jobs, housing, benefits, and hope for a better future.
