Our Projects
We develop and implement approaches that advance equity and person-centered care, support recovery and stable housing, achieve health and wellness, and effect lasting social change. We bring our values and expertise to everything we do—from targeted consulting and community change work to large-scale training and technical assistance. Check out a sampling of the projects we have worked on since we opened our doors in 2006.
