The Kearney Center

The Kearney Center is a state-of-the-art facility in Tallahassee, FL that works to serve those who are experiencing homelessness, as well as those who are at-risk of becoming homeless. In addition to meals and temporary emergency shelter, the Kearney Center connects clients to social service agencies that can specifically address the unique needs of each of the individuals served. Case management, GED classes, employment services, substance abuse counseling, mental health counseling, veteran services and an on-site medical clinic can all be accessed at the Kearney Center. It is through partnerships with state, federal and local governmental agencies, non-profit and faith based organizations that we can provide holistic services to our clients. We currently provide an average of 800 means a day and house nearly 400 people overnight in our emergency shelter. Westgate and the dwellings provide long-term low-barrier housing options in the community. CESC, Inc. employees work for these three programs in an effort to meet the overall mission of CESC, Inc., which is to ensure homelessness is rare, brief, and nonrecurring in the Tallahassee community.
