Avivo Village

You may know us for reimagining how to get people off the street.

Avivo Village gave people their own door to close, indoors, year-round. But housing is one slice of the picture. What happens next — recovery, mental health care, training, a job — is the rest of what Avivo does.

One organization. Four connected supports.

Avivo is here
01

Ending homelessness

Street outreach, housing case management, and Avivo Village indoor shelter. Avivo believes housing is a human right.

02

Chemical & mental health

Assessments, addiction treatment programs, and mental health services for individuals and families.

03

Career & technical education

A licensed school offering credentialed training paired with employment services.

04

Support for low-income adults, youth, single parents, immigrants, and individuals with disabilities.

“I’m not the only one who went through things. They also went through things. We went through it together, so we can heal together.”

Megan, a mother of twins, is celebrating over a year and a half of sobriety. She completed her first semester of college and is working toward her license as an alcohol and drug counselor.
