The first shelter buildings were located at Blue Creek, Ohio on Blue Creek Road, next to the Jefferson School (erected in 1925.) As the years went by changes occurred and in July of 2000 the shelter gained a new Director (Robert Boldman.) Then in 2010 the old Jefferson School building was scheduled to be torn down. Due to this change the shelter was granted an allocation through the county to purchase property in West, Union, Ohio. On November 1, 2010, the shelter re-opened and an open house was held on November 29. A new chapter has started for the shelter with hopes of a bright future in service to the Homeless. Adams County Shelter endeavors to provide services to all citizens in need. A house is the basis for a home, it's the structure inside where our lives unfold; where we nurture our children, face our challenges and celebrate our milestones. For a house to become a home it must be safe, decent, affordable - and available. In Ohio, more affordable housing is badly needed. Last year, approximately 150,000 Ohioans were homeless. More than 40 percent of Ohio renters cannot afford the fair-market rent of a two-bedroom unit; and foreclosures totaled nearly 90,000 in 2009. It was the 14th consecutive year of record breaking foreclosure numbers. At Adams County Homeless Shelter (ACSH) we believe that everybody should have a home. ACSH supports a range of housing assistance services in Ohio, including homeless prevention, rapid re-housing, and finding permanent affordable housing with linkages to supportive services, as needed. Since 1995, ACSH has worked on behalf of the homeless in need of emergency shelter; hoping that someday they will find shelter that can become lasting homes filled with life's possibilities.
