In 1991, at the invitation of the City of San Diego, Alpha Project began operation of the Neil Good Day Center, the City’s only full-service day center for the homeless. Today, the Day Center serves as the intake facility for the agency’s many programs throughout the City and offers a full-range of services to the City’s homeless population. Over 300 homeless men and women access the Day Center each day for showers, social service referrals, mail and message service, laundry facilities, safe storage, mental health counseling, substance abuse recovery meetings, and job opportunities.

The Day Center operates between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM Monday through Friday and from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM Saturdays and Sundays.  All clients have direct access to a staff of case managers who assist with contacting other service providers including public offices and private agencies.  Each year approximately 100 homeless men and women access employment through the Day Center by enrolling in one of Alpha Project’s transitional employment programs.
