COMMUNITY DROP IN SPACE & RESOURCE HUB

Community Living Room

Community Living Room is as a vibrant community hub for people experiencing homelessness. Now in the same location as our Wellness Clinic, it is a casual environment in which guests experiencing the stress of housing instability are invited indoors, into a community, to enjoy a warm meal, hang out, and choose for themselves whether to engage in services we offer.

This space is primarily run by Community Ambassadors who are hired and trained directly from the community. These are individuals who were or are experiencing homelessness, substance users and now in recovery, former and active sex workers, and immigrants. Community Ambassadors are also native San Francisco and Tenderloin residents who grew up in the neighborhood and now live and work in the area.
