“This project is about so much more than a building. It’s about connection and dignity.
When those we serve feel perpetually like trespassers in their own city, it can be a place of belonging; a place of respite from everyday survival to participate in healing through ceremony, friendship and support; a place of beauty that shows the people we serve that they matter.”
-Jordan Reiniger
Executive Director, Boyle Street Community Services
