 Ritter Center serves low-income to no-income families and individuals in Marin County who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless. All of our registered clients fall well below the Marin County self-sufficiency standard for their household size. Despite their best efforts, low wages keep them struggling from paycheck to paycheck. Those with jobs are most often employed without health insurance and other benefits. They often lack reliable transportation, especially problematic here in Marin. Any unforeseen expense becomes a serious financial obstacle that threatens their ability to pay rent or put food on the table. Ritter Center assists more than 4,000 individuals each year.
