Did you know this month was Social Workers appreciation month?

At Open Arms Housing we find it important to give every individual in the fight to end homelessness their flowers.

Happy First Day of Spring! There's no better symbol of the season than the splendor of the cherry blossoms gently flickering in the breeze. With white petals showing and peak bloom coming soon, why not come down to the Mall and enjoy the day? We won't tell your boss.

We hope to see you there!

“Only recently has the federal government said you can use Medicaid to help people find a unit, move them in, buy furniture...because the No. 1 federal dollar in every state is Medicaid. We have to make that program work to help solve homelessness." https://t.co/ElJeGdPdrQ
