We do this by empowering families and individuals who are experiencing homelessness by providing them with rapid rehousing and transitional housing and a range of services that includes tenant counseling, financial assistance and education, free psychotherapy, and case management.

MISSION

Providing housing and a hand up for homeless and housing insecure individuals and families living in Sonoma County and neighboring areas; in an atmosphere of dignity, respect and kindness; toward an outcome of empowerment, self-sufficiency, and independence.
