About Out Of The Cold
Out of the Cold: Centre County is a low-barrier shelter open from 8 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. every night. During the 2020-2021 season, 17 congregations helped to provide overnight shelter for 175 guests.

Our host sites rotates every two weeks. Each evening our guests are welcomed warmly, served a hot meal, given a cot, warm blankets, and a place to sleep. Breakfast is served in the morning and before leaving guests can register to return that evening.

Basic case management is provided to guests for assistance acquiring housing and other supportive services at our Day Shelter, located at 318 South Atherton Street in State College. 

Out of the Cold: Centre County is a grassroots effort and is a registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.
