HERO  is a local grassroots organization that, in the words of its mission statement, “helps people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness to recognize and claim the power within, in order to obtain their goals for personal growth and success.”

HERO provides a variety of workshops for clients (referred by other social work agencies or judicial officials) to accept responsibility for their life circumstances and recognize the ability to make change.

HERO works closely with other area agencies, the University of Michigan and local high schools to educate students about doing more to combat homelessness.

The HERO clothing collection program helps people in our community who are either homeless or at risk of becoming so.  Reusable clothes and shoes are handed out for free, traded with other agencies to meet local needs, or sold for funds to support programs for these clients. 

We are happy to join this partnership with HERO in the effort to help our area’s homeless.  This organization is truly focused on long-term solutions for our neediest citizens.
