🌨️ In the winter of 1978, two unhoused individuals lost their lives to hypothermia in Alamosa. Sister Mary Angelo Lobato knew something had to change, and she took action. 💔
With just $25 and the help of five dedicated locals, La Puente Home was born.
🏠 By 1982, the shelter opened its doors, becoming one of the first rural homeless shelters in the nation.
Today, La Puente is more than just a shelter. We offer:
🍎 Food through the Food Bank Network of the San Luis Valley
🏡 Rental assistance via our Crisis Prevention Office
🚶 Survival resources for unsheltered individuals through Street Outreach
🧒 Youth support through our PALS Children’s Program
👚 Clothing & housewares at ReThreads Free Store
🌱 Fresh produce from the VEGI Community Gardens
👨👩👧👦 Family support through Adelante services
🛏️ A safe place to stay at our Community Shelter for those who are unhoused
From that first cold night to now, La Puente has remained committed to one mission: assisting individuals and families affected by poverty so they can stabilize, heal, strengthen, and ultimately thrive.
