Our Story
South Oakland Citizens for the Homeless (SOCH) has been a beacon of hope for the homeless community in South Oakland County since 2003. Operating the Welcome Inn Day Center, the only low-barrier wintertime day center in the area, SOCH provides essential services to those in need. Recently, a 20-year lease for the Starr Presbyterian Church building was secured, allowing for an expansion of services and a deeper impact in the community. Collaborating with local churches, SOCH demonstrates a strong commitment to community engagement and support.
