Camillus House Overnight Shelter Miami

Camillus House Overnight Shelter is a housing program that offers emergency and extended stays to adults in Miami who are homeless and coping with mental health conditions, substance use, or trauma. Set on 7th Avenue near downtown and Jackson Memorial Hospital, the shelter places residents near public transportation and medical services. Staff describe the setting as secure and respectful, with an open-door approach that reduces barriers for people who need a place to sleep and a beginning point toward stability.

The program combines housing with one-on-one counseling and group sessions. Counselors work with residents on trauma, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders, and people who have survived sexual abuse receive support that recognizes that history. When psychiatric care is needed, the shelter connects residents to those resources. The broader aim is emotional recovery and day-to-day stability, with progress toward longer-term wellbeing rather than a quick fix.
