Sponsors, Inc
Sponsors, Inc. transforms lives and strengthens the community by providing life-changing opportunities for people with conviction histories. Sponsors provides transitional, long-term and permanent housing in addition to a range of services including, but not limited to, employment assistance, mentoring, mental health and treatment services, all designed to reduce recidivism and improve the quality of life in our community. The agency operates 20 buildings on seven sites with over 200 units of housing. Since 1973, Sponsors has worked to enhance the safety of our community while providing the critical supports individuals returning home from prison need to be successful members of our community. The program has a proven track record of success: increasing housing and employment stability, reunifying families, and reducing recidivism. How can you help? Help build a Tiny House! We’re building a Tiny Home Community to serve homeless individuals who face the greatest challenges to secure housing. We need help from the community to raise the remaining $75,000 to fully fund the project and break ground this spring. The project will create ten new units of affordable housing on a campus with a community building, laundry facility and bike storage.
