Dakota Woodlands is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. Dakota Woodlands is unique in many ways. We are the only shelter specifically for families who are homeless in our community. Families stay as long as necessary to move from homelessness to homes of their own, but on average stay for two months. During this time, families are provided with a variety of educational and supportive services which address the issues related to homelessness and help them to successfully obtain and maintain permanent housing.

We shelter 22 families at a time at our gorgeous facility and in 2010 we sheltered a total of 116 families.
86% of their residents move on to safe, affordable housing.
We provide comprehensive follow up supportive services to former residents

Over 30 years of successful service, empowering homeless women

to create stable futures for their families.
