We create restorative living environments, where clients can thrive while preparing for permanent housing.
We prioritize Diversity & Inclusion among our clients and seek to always create a safe space through cultural competency and humility.

We believe deeply in trauma-informed care, harm reduction, and the housing first model and expect our teams to always uphold these principles.

Initiative: You like to work and be active your whole shift. You find things to keep you busy that benefit the clients and the program at all times. You make suggestions and pick up tasks to help the community.
Critical thinking/problem solving: You should be able to encounter a problem, gather information, and formulate a solution. You will be supported by your team, but your thoughts will be valued!
Tenacity: Simply put, you get the job done. You don't let barriers stop you and you problem solve to find solutions.
Respect towards others: You are constantly evaluating and assessing yourself for bias and contributing to a Diversity & Inclusion work space.
Empathy: You see the clients as people. You don't demand respect or infantilize them. You are here to be a part of seeing them on their journeys to living their best lives.
