We were founded in Alameda County in 1989 when a small group of people came together to address a growing problem with family homelessness ...in the Tri-City Area. Since then, we have expanded our impact throughout the Bay Area, serving more than 6,100 adults and children each year in Alameda, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Mateo, and Napa counties.
