Our Programs
Daily Bread is the only day shelter in Melbourne providing respite from the streets and the following comprehensive services for the unhoused population:

Food & Meal Services
Our dining facility provides hot, nutritious meals 365 days per year, serving 49,920 meals in 2023.

Pathways Home
A dedicated team of homeless service professionals works side by side with chronically homeless people to assess their individual challenges, refer them to services, and monitor a coordinated effort to transition the person to a stable living environment.

Street Outreach
Brevard is experiencing a dramatic rise in unsheltered homelessness, and many of these individuals don't receive services at Daily Bread's Fee Ave. campus. Our Outreach team meets people where they are with a mobile office, Streetside Showers, and food truck to access needs and provide services.

Healthcare Services
Most individuals who experience hunger or homelessness are low to no income and under-insured, which creates a tremendous barrier to receiving adequate healthcare. We provide access to health care, prescription assistance, dental, mental health, and addiction resources.

Fresh Start Services
Daily Bread provides hot showers, clean clothes, toiletries, and other items that make living outside more manageable, such as blankets and sleeping bags.

Employment Services
Valued volunteers provide 1:1 counseling, assistance with resume writing, mock interviews, job search support based on skills and abilities, and application follow-up.

Food Distribution
In addition to serving a daily meal, Daily Bread distributes over 1.5 million pounds of food to over 25 local partners annually.
