As we close out the year, we reflect on the power of
community and connection in our Enrichment Programs.
You Gotta Nourish to Flourish
Your support makes a huge difference. Thanks to you, we can continue nurturing communities that foster growth, dignity, and hope.
All donations to the brand new CSS Nourish Fund will be directed toward nourishing the lives of unhoused individuals through open art studio classes, music lessons, peer-led support groups, employment prep, and more.
Family reunites and forges a new beginning
Robert hadn’t seen his brother Dan in 17 years. “I’ve been looking for him. I hadn’t had any luck and, honestly, I didn’t think he was still around.”
But when Robert moved from one CSS community to the Micro-Mission Community in mid-September, he saw a face he knew.
“Oh my God, it’s my long lost brother,” he said. And they gave each other a big bear hug.
Dan, 56, has been in CSS Safe Spots for two years and Robert, 59, about a year. Eugene natives, they have both dealt with many difficult challenges. But, thanks to CSS, they have been reunited in a safe place and will help each other build more stable lives.
“It was meant to be,” Dan says.
