We need your expertise at our interim housing facilities in South San Jose!

Our emergency interim housing facilities (EIH) provide interim housing opportunities to unhoused adults in a safe, private, and secure environment.

We are looking for someone who can teach our participants basic life skills that they would need in their new residence. Information provided could include laundry tips, cleaning hacks, meal prep, avoiding/ getting rid of pests, time management, organization, and more.

By providing a workshop that teaches basic skills, you will help participants be more successful while bridging from homeless to housed.

We hope you will join us in supporting our unhoused neighbors.
