Back on My Feet

From Running to Sustainable Employment and Self-Sufficiency

Operating in 16 cities nationwide, Back on My Feet bridges the gap between emergency resources and self-sufficiency. Handing each of our members the keys to an apartment is not an effective solution on its own, even if it were financially possible! To truly help someone recover from homelessness and/or addiction, we need to provide the resources and social support they need to:

• Create healthy routines and coping mechanisms that prevent recidivism or relapse
• Learn or regain work skills & tools
• Find sustainable employment
• Manage finances and build a safety net
• Secure longterm housing
