We gathered this morning at our iconic headquarters at 1515 Fairmount Avenue to celebrate its new name: Christopher J. Seward Residence! We are incredibly thankful to Christopher's parents, Marie and Jim, and the entire Seward family for their continued, dedicated support for our mission and their care for those experiencing homelessness. https://lnkd.in/efDYHVDs

"The legal and moral battle over using policing, laws, and force to remove people from the streets has been fought in communities for decades. Court rulings nationwide have upheld the fundamental human rights of persons who found themselves in situations of homelessness without the necessary resources to overcome struggles such as addiction, mental illness, and especially affordable housing." - Sister Mary Scullion, For The Inquirer 📢 To read more of Sister Mary's op-ed for The Philadelphia Inquirer, visit the link below: https://lnkd.in/edwhGS-5
