Walter worked as a dish washer to stay current with his child support payments, and spent his nights on the streets. He came to St. John Center each morning to shower and work on his housing applications. When he visited his daughter, she’d ask, “When do I get to stay with you, Daddy?” “Soon, sweetie.” Walter moved into housing this year, representing one of the 219 SJC clients who also received housing. We want to help even more men into housing, but we have no more room. To address this issue, the board voted to renovate the building to expand square footage in order to increase services. The renovation project will cost an estimated $775,000, and will begin next summer.
