About Us
Our Vision
Abundant Grace Coastside Worker envisions a day when all of our neighbors experiencing homelessness are housed, employed if possible, and in good mental and physical health as they pursue their own meaningful life
Our Mission
Our mission is to accompany the unhoused as they transform their lives through meaningful work.
Our 5 Goals:
Housing, Employment, Sobriety, Mental and Physical Health, Food Security
Full Circle
Food Justice
Full Circle Food Justice – Our signature program is a partnership with Potrero Nuevo Farm, south of Half Moon Bay. Each week, we bring individuals experiencing homelessness to the Farm where they can participate in three different projects:
• Farm Work Days
• Farm Apprenticeship
• Conservation Crew
Coastside
Clean Team
We engage people experiencing homelessness to clean the beaches and coastal trails thanks to a contract with the City of Half Moon Bay. We also work with the homeless community to identify and clean abandoned encampments. We pick up an astounding 140,000 pounds of trash annually! It’s a great program for the city, our neighbors and the homeless community.
Workforce Development Center
The WDC is the hub of all our services and of homelessness services in the area, and we intentionally craft a space that is inviting, inclusive and supportive. It offers a wide range of resources including access to the kitchen, showers, laundry, food, clothing room, laptops and WiFi access, limited storage and mail service, personal care items, bicycle repair…
Our Newsletter
Abundant Grace transforms lives through our job-readiness programming: taking people experiencing homelessness to grow and harvest over 15,000 pounds of fresh, organic produce for free distribution to low-income families at our Full Circle Food Justice Program; and to clean up the environment on the beaches and trails of Half Moon Bay on the Coastside Clean Team. We are doing good, meaningful work together; we are making a difference in our community; we are transforming our very selves. Please be a part of this unique project. Make common cause with us. We can't do it alone - we need your participation and support.
