Meet Marcus. For over a year, Marcus called a bench downtown his bed and a doorway his shelter. Despite every hardship, he showed up daily at St. John Center — not just to survive, but to move forward.

Marcus unlocked the door to a place he could finally call home. Marcus' journey is a testament to hope, perseverance, and the power of Housing First.

❤️ Leave a note of encouragement in the comments — we’ll pass it along!
