   Changing lives 
​ is what we take pride in

​​Dakota Woodlands believes everyone deserves an opportunity for a fresh start and to address their life’s complications in a safe and compassionate environment.  Located in Eagan, Minnesota Dakota Woodlands can assist 22 homeless families at one time with housing and training that includes life skills, financial literacy, and personal wellness.  The award winning program at Dakota Woodlands is known for its homey atmosphere, personal attention, and successful “one shelter stay” for its residents.  After leaving the shelter, over 92% of the residents who participate in the full program succeed in staying stably housed.   ​
Lift Us Up!

​Dakota Woodlands needs your help!  We have embarked on a challenge that requires an outreach of support.  An unexpected elevator repair with an exorbitant price tag has impacted the community at the Shelter.  
We are trying to raise  $27,000. 

​As of 3/31/2021...
​ we received $21,306.03 towards this goal!

Thank you!

The day the clinic arrived at our Shelter, we had many registered waiting to receive the vaccine, a total of 46 people. The nurses onsite fielded questions and concerns from participants and distributed documentation about the vaccine prior to giving the 1st dose of a 2 dose vaccination series. They were able to help residents better understand the risks and benefits to help make the right decision for them.
