5,500 nights of shelter. 6,000 students reached.

But behind every number is a story.

A survivor finding safety. A young person learning what a healthy relationship looks like. A community showing up when it matters most.

Our 2025–26 Annual Report is coming soon, and we can’t wait to share a closer look at the people and impact behind the numbers.

Stay tuned💜

Karen is pictured with San Mateo Councilwoman Lisa Diaz Nash and members of the community who came together in support of this effort.
