Darland was selected by Siena/Francis House to build a new men’s shelter across the street from their current facility.
The Baright Shelter has a pre-engineered structure wrapped in block, glass and metal panels. The facility features a 200 bunk bed style dormitory, a smaller 24 bunk bed style sleeping area, full kitchen and dining room, a medical clinic with two exam rooms, a loading dock and freight elevator to 2nd floor food and donated clothing storage.
This addition to Siena/Francis House allows room in the original building to expand the addiction recovery program and the women and children’s shelter for the local homeless population.
The Siena/Francis House is the largest shelter in Nebraska and provides food, shelter (342 beds) clothing, and medical and rehabilitation services to homeless men, women, and children from Nebraska and Western Iowa.
