Where safety and dignity meet, homelessness ends.

A safe place to sleep is just the beginning. We walk alongside our community members, providing the care, support, and connection they need to find their way to permanent homes.

More than shelter. A community.

Open Arms provides safe, dignified shelter to community members experiencing homelessness in Santa Fe — and then we stay. Through deep partnership with The Life Link and a growing network of programs, we address trauma, restore dignity, and walk with our neighbors all the way to a home of their own. We are proving, one person at a time, that feeling truly safe is where everything begins.

When I arrived at the Arroyo Chamiso Micro Community, I didn't know where I'd be in a month. Now I have keys to my own apartment.

Your gift keeps the lights on.

Open Arms receives support from the City of Santa Fe, but community donations make the difference — funding art programs, garden projects, resident stipends, and the little things that make a place feel like home.
Every dollar stays in Santa Fe. Every gift makes an impact you can see.
