Get Connected to Shelter

Please call the Baltimore City Shelter Hotline at 443-984-9540 to connect with emergency shelter.

The Shelter Hotline helps people who are experiencing or at risk of homeless connect with emergency shelters funded by the City. While shelter space is not guaranteed and depends on availability, the Mayor's Office of Homeless Services (MOHS) will refer you to other resources and local shelters if City-funded shelters are full. Currently, there is no waiting list for City-funded shelters.
