Housing Works Newsletter
We have been keeping busy here at Housing Works! Check out what we've been up to below.
Staff Wellness
We have been focusing on promoting and cultivating staff wellness here at Housing Works. We believe it is important to take care of our frontline workers so that they can then provide that support to our participants.
At the end of January, we took a staff wellness trip to the Marciano Art Foundation. To see more photos and videos of our trip, check out our Instagram and TikTok!
Food Boost
Food Boost is a program designed to support and enhance the food security of our community members by providing supplemental meals and groceries to members at high risk of food insecurity.
We have been partners with the Hollywood Food Coalition for over a year to prepare bags of quality food otherwise destined for the dumpster and deliver this food to the doorsteps of our participants most in need. We now have another partner joining us to help with our Food Boost efforts.
The Sam Simon Foundation is providing our program with more support by giving us 200 grocery bags of plant-based items to distribute to our residents at Gramercy Apartments and surrounding community members.
Today, we deliver 160 grocery boxes and 600 meals every month in partnership with Hollywood Food Coalition, as well as 400 grocery bags every month in partnership with the Sam Simon Foundation to help our community overcome poor access to fresh produce and healthy food.
