About LIBERTY CENTER FOR THE HOMELESS INC

Liberty Center for the Homeless, Inc. operates residential programs in downtown Jacksonville that provide single-room-occupancy (SRO) housing and basic supportive services for adults transitioning out of homelessness. The organization runs multiple properties (four total) and operates a clothing closet and other on-site supports to help residents stabilize and re-enter the community. Liberty Center accepts HUD-supported subsidies (three properties are HUD-subsidized SROs) and also accommodates vouchers such as VASH, Shelter Plus Care and Section 8 at certain sites. The organization maintains an active Florida nonprofit registration and routinely files IRS Form 990s; the EIN 59-2892527 matches Florida Division of Corporations records and public nonprofit filings. Founded in 1988 by Joan and Robert “Bob” Harris Sr., Liberty Center continues to operate neighborhood-based housing in partnership with local social-service providers and HUD-funded programs to reduce homelessness in Duval County.
