From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Drop Inn Center Shelter House of Cincinnati is the largest homeless shelter in the state of Ohio, located on Twelfth Street in the downtown Cincinnati, Ohio neighborhood of Over-the-Rhine, near Washington Park. The non-profit shelter provides chemical dependency treatment for the homeless population of the city, as well as free meals and shelter. The residents sleep in simple dorms, with the main area filled with rows of benches for use during the day.[1][2]
