We know that the solution to homelessness is housing. With your support, together we can help save lives and money by housing people experiencing homelessness who are the most likely to die on our streets and are utilizing the most amount of services. We can shut the door on homelessness, making it a thing of the past and making a future of permanent housing and hope.

“I think it’s an extreme gap in the services that we offer this population,” said Kat Sotelo, executive director of the JobConnect program within Heading Home. “I think it’s definitely worth taking a risk. For whatever reason there are so many jobs available in, let’s say, construction, food service. We want to help them discover new skill sets that they may not realize they have.”

Sotelo says the end goal is successful reintegration into society.

A Success Story In late October 2022, a man walke

A Success Story

In late October 2022, a man walked into a City Office downtown, lost and in disarray.
The City office contacted ABQ StreetConnect and asked for help. A StreetConnect Case Manager was sent to meet with the man. He stated that he’d been walking the streets of New Mexico for the past year and a half. ABQ StreetConnect took him on as a client. He had no Identification, no documentation, and stated that he had lost his Social Security Benefits, and Food Stamp card. After becoming medically stable, he was placed in a boarding home and all his documentation and Social security benefits were put back in place. He then wanted to go back home to Iowa to be with his family and grandchildren, so he eventually caught the Amtrak. Once home, his family was able to find him housing.

Come be part of the solution. Visit headinghome.org/employment today.
