We were honored to spend the day at Saranam's beautiful campus to celebrate the collective dedication to housing stability, and the federal dollars that made it possible.

HHH is immensely grateful to Representative Stansbury for supporting the Gateway Young Adult Housing and Treatment Navigation Center, as well as future plans for senior housing services - an identified need in our city!

Each event was different, but the theme was the same: This community cares.

Four events across three days gave students gear, haircuts, and a reminder that their community cares
