Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Community Kitchen
From the start, Eva's Village has served our guests with dignified dine-in service instead of the typical "chow line" provided in most community kitchens. Unfortunately, during the pandemic our kitchen had to provide to-go meals to those who lined up outside the building. We are pleased to return to dine-in service.
Eva's Community Kitchen serves an average of 350 meals daily, including meals for those who reside in Eva's Village homeless shelters and halfway houses. With a small kitchen staff and an army of dedicated volunteers. Our team not only serves meals but engages with guests to try and understand the root causes of their needs, whether it is due to unemployment, homelessness, substance use disorders or mental health challenges. Through these conversations, Eva's staff and volunteers guide guests toward programs that help empower them to lead healthy, independent, financially secure lives.
