   The building, which previously housed businesses, was purchased for about $400,000, said Susan Brenchley, regional director of Catholic Charities. The funding, including refurbishing costs, has come primarily from the federal government and the city, Brenchley said. The $250,000 to $300,000 annual operating budget comes from a variety of federal and state sources as well as the United Way, church funds and private donations. The shelter was supposed to be up and running several months ago, but the effort experienced roadblocks in securing funding, Brenchley said. "It's been a lot of stops and starts," she said. The shelter focuses on helping families overcome barriers that have led to their homelessness â€" including debt, substance abuse, limited employment skills and legal problems, Brenchley said.

   We are blessed to have secured the funding and a wonderful facility that is needed to assist these families as they work to become self-sufficient," said Susan Brenchley, regional director of Catholic Charities, serving Coconino, Mohave, Apache and Navajo counties.
   
   During the past several years, there has been a shift in the demographics of those seeking emergency shelters. Brenchley says they include more single-parent families struggling to overcome homelessness as a result of divorce or domestic violence.
   
   "These families have more significant barriers to overcome including debt, substance abuse, limited employment skills, lack of eligibility for public benefit programs and legal problems," she said.
