These are our future leaders, who visited our site, learned about their neighbors in need, and talked to our team - bringing these beautifully wrapped gifts of full cookware sets along with them.

These cookware sets will be housewarming gifts for the people we move into housing. We have one move-out this week and will continue it from there!

After our first 6 months, we are proud to share the success of each of the 21 Fremont community members who are now living in permanent housing, and are no longer experiencing homelessness! We will keep working with every single person who stays with us to continue making this impact.

Thank you Mayor Lily Mei for sharing this update! This would not be possible without the incredible support from community members of Fremont, who have made quilts, donated shoes and clothes and hygiene kits, and given us the strong support of "Yes In My Backyard" to bring tangible solutions to the housing crisis that impacts our neighbors.

So far, 21 out of the first 44 people we have served have moved into housing. The other community members are still active residents and we are working with them to find housing - but we are so thrilled for the 21 people who have headed in these first 6 months.

When COVID restrictions end, we will be able to help even more people, as we are currently operating at half capacity for safety.

Homelessness is a massive, increasingly visible challenge that our community is facing, and because it has no single cause, there is no “one size fits all” solution.

At the Fremont Navigation Center, people have temporary housing (on average, 4-6 months) while we help them locate permanent housing and work on mental health, physical health, benefits, and job needs. This type of generosity from our community partners is crucial!
