🔑 It’s Key Friday! 🏠

Today, we celebrate another incredible milestone — someone in our community has received the keys to their new home!

Every Key Friday reminds us what’s possible when housing, hope, and support come together. Behind every key is a story of strength, perseverance, and community.

At St. John Center, we believe housing is a right — not a privilege. Each person we serve deserves the safety, stability, and dignity that come with a home of their own.

Join us in celebrating this moment and all those still on their journey to housing. 💛
