Refuge For Renewal
Renewing Lives. Restoring Hope. Building Community.
Refuge for Renewal is a transformative initiative with a clear mission: to reduce homelessness in Dallas, TX. By fostering collaboration, enhancing lives, and building a unified community system of care, we will deliver lasting solutions and meaningful impact.
A dedicated campus outside downtown Dallas will provide streamlined social and medical services as part of the Dallas Community System of Care. On-site professionals will address mental health, substance abuse, education, vocational training, financial literacy, and other essential needs like food and shelter.
Our Core Principles
- Community System of Care: The foundation of this work is to refine community systems of care to increase collaboration, improve people’s lives, and generate a full community response.
- People: This work is about people. People that serve, people that engage in services, people that support through contributing time and resources. It takes everyone.
- Cross Sector Partners: Cross Sector Partners are the fuel that makes this come together. Integrating each other’s efforts results in more efficient service delivery, improved client outcomes, and cost savings to social systems.
- Refuge for Renewal Campus: The campus is the physical manifestation of this framework. It is where people come to find a place to belong. This is where community systems and cross sector partners come together.
- Access to Services: Bringing all the services together reduces the barriers to finding help.
A Place to Call Home: The goal of these efforts result in people finding their own life path and a place to call home, surrounded by community.
