Mission
In 1977, what is now known as Preble Street was established as an experiment by University of Southern Maine Professor, Joseph Kreisler, to offer social work students practical experience and help serve the homeless and low-income community. Over two million meals later, the pioneering activism and humanitarian spirit behind Joseph Kreisler's vision continues turning lives around. Preble Street has distinguished itself for its comprehensive approach to helping our homeless and low-income community. While striving to meet immediate needs for food, clothing and day-shelter, Preble Street works just as hard at meeting long-term needs for permanent housing, literacy, job training, employment, mental health services, healthcare and substance abuse treatment.
