It can be a helpless feeling to be homeless, yet thousands find themselves in this predicament annually in San Luis Obispo County.
The Prado Day Center is the only day center serving the homeless population in the region. Every day, between 90 to 120 people seek refuge and assistance at the Center and over 30 percent of the Center’s participants are now women and children.
