Saint Francis House is a nonprofit, nonsectarian, ecumenical daytime shelter, primarily for the homeless, located in downtown Boston, Massachusetts, and founded in the early 1980s. It is the largest daytime shelter in New England and serves as an early model of such a center. Its mission, has been stated early on as It serves and helps poor and homeless people in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi who was dedicated to helping the neglected. Saint Francis House was formally founded by the Justice and Peace Committee from the Saint Anthony Shrine[2] on Arch Street in downtown Boston in 1984, but its origins date back to 1981, when the Franciscans at Saint Anthony's had opened a soup kitchen and some accommodation for the homeless.
