Since 2009, Lockport CARES has opened its doors to families at risk including men, women, veterans, and families with children who find themselves in need of emergency shelter, material needs, and compassionate care with dignity and respect. Guests are allowed to stay up to 15 business days during which time they meet with our Care Manager to assess their needs and develop solutions.
