Welcome to the Hive on Wheels

The Hive on Wheels is a mobile resource center that allows Hively to take our services on the road. Whether we are popping up at a park, fair, festival, or community event, the Hive on Wheels ensures that transportation is not a barrier to accessing critical resources.

While Hive on Wheels loves to buzz around town, we stay in the hive on rainy or stormy days to keep everyone safe and dry!

What is the Hive on Wheels?

Stocked with essentials such as diapers, wipes, children’s clothing, books, and more, the Hive on Wheels is a flexible solution for meeting families where they are. Every Hive on Wheels event includes an inviting and safe place for kids to wiggle and play, while parents and caregivers connect with Hively staff to learn about our services.
