"No one person or organization has been more helpful & supportive & important to my LIFE than you folks ALL have. I can easily say without any doubt that I would not be alive still today and maintained my drug / alcohol recovery WITHOUT Andi & PHS ongoing support."

"Progressive Housing Society were the only service who reached out to a part of the district that is usually overlooked – I was impressed by that. They show up consistently and bring brightness and social connections to a place that can be dark."

"Not only do they do housing they help you go through processes that other people might find overwhelming and I just find it a stand up organization because they do so much and are willing to do so much."

“If it wasn’t for Progressive Housing and the Social Worker from BGH referring me to you guys I would have lost all hope. Whenever you call I make sure to answer and it brings me joy. I am grateful for everything you are trying to do for me. No one has taken the time to hear me out, except you guys.”

“Progressive Housing Society has helped me with resources, furniture, staples. PHS has been a God send, has provided me with security. It is the continued association with Progressive Housing that provides moments of joy.”
