STAFF

What sets our staff apart is their lived experience.

They understand the clients we serve, because they have experienced jail, homelessness, substance abuse addiction.

They are living examples of what is possible. And they know how hard the journey is.

They are inspirations to the communities we serve. They speak their language. They do not judge. They also do not take any crap. They are tough, and they are dedicated, and we could not do this work without them.
