Giving safety and shelter to those facing homelessness, making housing more affordable, and helping promote home ownership

“Both of us are blind and have often struggled to find work. We even got split up and I was living on the streets for awhile. A New Leaf gave our family a home.” – Tim

Rising living expenses and housing costs, combined with a lack of jobs available, have pushed many families to homelessness. So many of our neighbors are just one missed paycheck away from losing a safe place to live. We believe that every person deserves to have a safe place to call home.

Making sure that a variety of resources are available to prevent homelessness, and to assist those recovering from homelessness, is critical. Every household has different housing challenges, and A New Leaf offers programs across the Valley to help.

Thanks to you, Tim and his family were able to find stable housing and employment. Through these vital resources, we ensure no one faces homelessness alone.
