REACH Mission and Values
The REACH Program works with individuals experiencing homelessness and behavioral health conditions to help them achieve stability and improved quality of life. The REACH mission is to foster community health and safety through outreach, relationship, healing interventions, and systems advocacy for people who use drugs.
REACH provides outreach-based care coordination, multidisciplinary clinical services, and supports to access and maintain housing. All services are based on principles of harm reduction that offer respect and dignity to individuals moving through stages of change in their lives.
REACH incorporates a racial equity lens that includes naming the impact and actively dismantling systems of oppression rooted in White Supremacy, while addressing the root causes perpetuating historical trauma and immense suffering in individuals’ lives. We are committed to building a robust behavioral health response that diverts people away from jail by rebuilding community and providing services to ensure those presently marginalized aren’t just surviving, but able to thrive.
The REACH team is passionate about creating a hospitable and welcoming environment for all people while providing quality services on an individually tailored basis to our clientele.
