Our Mission at FISH NWCTThe mission of FISH NWCT is to provide the most basic of human needs - food, shelter and hope.
Since opening its doors in 1972, FISH has evolved into our region's largest emergency homeless shelter (35 beds) in the NWCT corner, providing families, individuals and veterans a safe and secure haven as they await permanent supportive housing; serving as a food pantry for area residents. We served over 2,600 people in the last year and distributed food for more than 182,000 meals. Our feature by "Divine Renovation"
The show "Divine Renovation" - hosted by Erik Estrada - filmed their second season as "Divine Renovation - Destination: New England" in NWCT during May 2023. Our friends at Divine Renovation managed renovation projects at FISH, interviewed staff and volunteers, hosted a premiere at The Warner Theatre for the second season of the show. FISH is featured in an entire episode! Please watch!! The series is available to stream on Tubi, Amazon Prime, and Roku. It also aired on Fox 61 several times in October 2024!

Our 6th annual "A Tasteful Event" was held May 22, 2024, at the Torrington Elks Lodge. We had a wonderful evening of celebrating food, wine, the joy of gathering and the spirit of giving. All to benefit FISH's Food Pantry and Shelter.
We look forward to next year! To find photos of the event, click here: A Tasteful Event Thank you
