The Puerto Rico Project
Shower Connect is a mobile shower trailer that consists of two showers and a consultation room.
This is our second year offering this initiative to the community. Participants have access to a hot shower with soap, towels, flip flops, and other necessities provided by our generous sponsors. The consultation room is used for overdose prevention demonstrations, case management, and other interventions that improve our participants’ well-being.

Everything you’ll need is supplied. We provide soap, shampoo, and shower kits which include a towel, washcloth, pair of flip flops, disposable razor, and assortment of feminine hygiene products.
Showers, shower kits, and toiletries are provided free of charge for anyone who needs them.
