Our Homes

Over 6,300 people live in our homes—families raising the next generation, seniors building their strength with Tai Chi, adults growing their career, and community members fighting for justice. People who want to live and thrive, but face enormous systemic obstacles to their basic human needs due to their income, race, spoken language, gender identity, and more.

TL After-School Program (TASP)

TASP is a place where over 230 kids and teens play, learn, build leadership skills, celebrate different cultures, and explore San Francisco and opportunities for their future. The only program of its kind in the Tenderloin, TASP often sees the same participants from ages 7 to 18 and later welcomes them back as employed staff.

Urban Agriculture

By building rooftop gardens and larger community gardens like the TNDC Tenderloin People's Garden and Webster Street People's Garden, the Urban Agriculture team is changing the food system from the ground up. Each garden provides a free fresh produce to building tenants or community members as well as a place for relaxation and connection.
