Why We Focus on Men

Our 12-week program is designed specifically to support men who have recently stabilized after homelessness. Men make up a significant portion of the unhoused population and often face unique challenges, including trauma, mental health struggles, and societal stigma. By focusing on this demographic, we can address these specific needs and provide tailored support that helps men rebuild their lives with confidence and strength.

While we’re currently dedicating our resources to men, we believe in supporting all individuals on their journey toward stability. In the future, we aim to expand our reach and collaborate with organizations that support people of all genders, ages, and backgrounds, ensuring that everyone has access to the help they deserve.

Many participants have experienced significant trauma, leading to homelessness. Understanding how trauma affects the brain and body is the first step toward healing.

Participants gain awareness of how trauma has shaped their experiences and learn the critical importance of addressing it to truly begin the healing process.

Activities

Interactive discussions, basic mindfulness exercises, and journaling to explore personal trauma and how it has impacted life decisions and emotional well-being.

Why This Matters

Recognizing the effects of trauma is the first step in breaking cycles of homelessness, reclaiming personal power, and beginning the journey to long-term stability.

Week 2: Building Safety and Trust

Without safety, deeper emotional work is impossible. Building trust and safety ensures participants can engage fully in the healing journey with reduced fear.

Week 3: Reconnecting with the Body

Exploring the body-mind connection through somatic intelligence.

Week 8: Redefining Self-Concept

Shifting from a trauma-based identity to one of strength and potential.

A positive self-concept is essential for moving forward and achieving personal goals. Redefining one’s identity from a place of strength enables lasting change.

Week 9: Visioning the Future
