Our Mission

Our mission is to help people experiencing or at risk of homelessness move towards self-sufficiency and find a safe home in our community.

Vision

We envision the day when all those who wish to be housed can have a safe home in our community.

Values

Dignity

We treat everyone with dignity, kindness and respect, with privacy always a top concern.

Collaboration

We collaborate with each client to develop a housing plan, and with other governmental and non-profit organizations to help fulfill that plan.

Persistence

We help our clients navigate complex application systems for benefits and services. We follow up frequently to ensure that all obstacles that arise during the process are handled successfully.

Empowerment

We encourage our clients to actively participate to the best of their abilities, empowering them to move towards agency and self-sufficiency.

Everything we do starts with our clients

We routinely engage with former and current clients, listening to their advice based on lived experiences. Their valuable insights help us to continuously improve our service delivery.
