Vacancy Grid

This Vacancy Grid aims to provide the most up to date information on beds and unit available in shelters around the island.

Please note that vacancies are self-reported (by providers) and subject to change without notice throughout the day. Also, if a shelter states that they do not have a vacancy but you have a special request, please contact the shelter in case they have a special circumstance.

 Due to the increase in COVID-19 cases on Oahu, some shelters may have instituted additional screening requirements. Please contact each respective shelter for more information. A comprehensive list of statewide emergency and transitional shelter vacancies are attached to this e-mail. Referrals to a transitional shelter must go thru the Coordinated Entry System, please contact your island’s Continuum of Care for more information.

 If individuals are interested in connecting to an available shelter opening, please contact the homeless outreach provider in your geographic area.  For assistance in connecting to an outreach provider in your area, please call the Office of the Governor’s Coordinator on Homelessness at 586-0193 or visit the following link: https://homelessness.hawaii.gov/outreach-programs/

SPECIAL REFERRAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR HONU:

Homeless Outreach Navigation for Unsheltered Persons, HONU, is short-term, low-barrier navigation center for households experiencing homelessness. HONU prioritizes households who are unable to access other shelter options due to capacity limitations, referral after normal intake hours, etc. Households referred to HONU must be able to meet activities of daily living (ADLs) in a semi-outdoor environment. Outreach workers and community partners should continue to use existing shelter and housing referral options before requesting a referral to HONU.

For assistance in clearing individuals into LCRS shelters for individuals with severe mental illness, call the Hawaii CARES line (formerly known as the Crisis Line) at (808)-832-3100 on Oahu and (800)-753-6879 on outer islands.

If individuals are interested in connecting to an available shelter opening, please contact the homeless outreach provider in your geographic area. For assistance in connecting to an outreach provider in your area, please review our service map at this link to find out the outreach program that covers your area.
