Dear friends,
Davis Street is here to serve our community in all our difficult times; while the Coronavirus crisis threatens our ways of living, we want our clients and community members to know that we are here, open and willing to help. We understand that the needs of our clients do not go away, and that our clients are among the most vulnerable. We are taking extra precautions to protect our staff, our clients, and our volunteers so that we can continue to safely provide our services.

As we battle this pandemic, it has become more and more apparent that as a community we must rise together. Davis Street's support services would not be able to function without the help of our supporters, donors, community members, volunteers, and staff members and our gratitude is endless. Davis Street's mission is to provide safety-net services for those in need and we will continue to do so at our greatest lengths with much safety and precautions for our staff, volunteers, and clients. As a community, we are stronger together.
From my heart to yours,
