RunningWorks

We RUN ~ We WORK ~ We HOUSE

RunningWorks utilizes a step by step team-oriented process that helps men, women and children overcome poverty, homelessness and addiction.

The biggest problem homeless individuals face is that something happened that made them lose their way (loss of job, addiction, abuse). To make matters worse, their family and trusted community often disowns them, and they get caught in a downward spiral of isolation, addiction and depression.

To help counteract this problem, RunningWorks has developed a 3-prong approach to empower our clients (a.k.a. Team Members) to break cycles of abuse, neglect, poverty and homelessness:

We Run: Most clients and participants are introduced to RunningWorks through our health and wellness programs and initiatives, which are designed to promote healthy lifestyle habits and choices while addressing the physical, mental and social health needs of our clients.

We Work: This phase is designed to help participants create pathways out of homelessness and poverty by increasing access and opportunities for education, career advancement, personal development and financial literacy.

We House: The third phase of the program consists of our supportive, housing initiatives, which are designed to connect homeless individuals and families with affordable, low-barrier, permanent housing opportunities.
