About Us
OUR VISION
To achieve functional zero homelessness in Knoxville, Tennessee.
OUR MISSION
We aim to support functional zero by weaving a web of interagency collaboration, so dense, no human falls through the cracks.
OUR APPROACH
In addition to providing direct services, we will act as a liaison, connecting vulnerable humans with resources, in the highest-risk locations; meeting people where they are.
WHO ARE WE?
- We are a team of passionate individuals who have watched addiction ravage lives.
- We have observed the squalor which homelessness brings to our city and neighborhoods.
- We have lost precious humans who didn't make it through our failing system.
- We have experienced what it takes to recover and how to help others recover.
- We have witnessed the power of addicts helping addicts.
- WE DON'T ACCEPT OUR CURRENT REALITY!
How did we get here?
- SHELTER and DAY SPACE with RESOURCES, for people experiencing homelessness, is one of Knoxville's most basic and unmet needs.
- Our current social system has gaps which prevent the successful reintegration of adults coming out of recovery and incarceration.
- This gap leads to greater risk of chronic homelessness and reoccurrence of addiction and crime.
- Stabilizing resources and shelter to usher individuals off the street out of reach to individuals experiencing homelessness.
