Carehouse Expands to Save Lives

Kansas City’s Carehouse, the only medical respite facility for the homeless, is undergoing a $6 million expansion that will triple its capacity to 39 beds—26 for medical recovery and 13 for low-barrier shelter. Designed to tackle the crisis of discharged patients with no place to go, the renovation adds ADA-compliant rooms, a commercial kitchen, and an elevator, while aiming to reduce ER strain and homelessness recidivism. With 60% of last year’s patients staying housed after care, this project could save even more lives—and dignity—by giving the vulnerable a real chance to heal.
