We envision a community where people experiencing homelessness have innovative, whole-person solutions to address the whole-person trauma of being unsheltered.
our Mission
Sunrise offers pathways to housing for people experiencing homelessness through low-barrier access to wraparound services by providing innovative, trauma-informed, and person-centered programming that engages our communities and leads system-wide transformation.
Sunrise Values
TRUST - Safety Builds Trust
We recognize the complex challenges individuals face in their lifetime and give trauma-informed care from initial contact that provides emotional and physical safety for all while creating a dependable safety net that minimizes risk.
CHOICE - Autonomy to Choose
We affirm each person as the expert in their own life as they take the next right step to wholeness and diligently walk alongside them as they explore their options.
COLLABORATION - Better Together
We build and encourage active relationships with community partners to improve systems and change culture while leveraging diverse perspectives to solve complex problems.
INNOVATION - Relentless Innovation
We are driven by curiosity towards strategic, effective and creative ideas that lead us outside our comfort zone. We make data-informed decisions that pursue meaningful, sustained outcomes while growing from our experiences and educating others to improve our work and our community.
EQUITY - Designed for All
We originate from the Christian faith and believe that our community is best served when diversity and inclusion are embedded in everything we do. We create an environment that brings together unique perspectives, removes obstacles for marginalized populations most disproportionately harmed by homelessness to attain their personal goals, and actively work towards dismantling the systems that perpetuate inequity in our community.
