Our Mission

Empowering people with disabilities to improve their housing stability, achieve better health, and reclaim their lives.

We Believe

  • Housing is a basic human right.
  • Everyone deserves a place to call home – it’s that simple.
  • Every person should be treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their current situation.
  • Everyone should have choices in life, and we empower people to make informed choices that reduce harm to themselves and others.
  • Creating a culture where it is easy to practice kindness, and everyone is welcomed with grace and hospitality, is essential.
  • Complex issues like homelessness require creativity, innovation, and constant evolution to meet the needs of those affected.

Our Core Services

  • Provide homes and comprehensive wrap-around services for people who have experienced chronic homelessness and suffer from serious mental illness, substance use disorder, and/or multiple other disabilities. 
  • Restore health by removing barriers to primary care services, behavioral and mental health treatment, medication management, and the coordination of psychiatric and substance use services to our program participants, while respecting harm reduction as a method for achieving goals.
  • Reclaim lives by promoting community inclusion and helping participants to be a part of the community and be valued for their own uniqueness and abilities, just like everyone else. 
  • Operating the Philadelphia Furniture Bank to redistribute donated, gently used furniture to individuals and families exiting homelessness.
