As November approaches quickly, we’re more blatantly reminded that not everyone will have consistent access to meals. Some of our 24/7 programs cover meals — but other programs don’t (outreach, drop-in, etc.) — and several of the individuals we serve will face real food insecurity this month.

If you’d like to help, every donation made in November will go directly toward food for those in need. Whether it’s a warm meal, pantry staples, or groceries, your support makes a direct impact.

💚 Give what you can. Share if you can’t.
Together, we can make sure no one goes hungry this month.

A wonderful visit with House Everyone STL! They are tirelessly working to change systems to create a St. Louis where housing is available and accessible for all. Proud to work within a network of such passionate people and organizations 💛

Provider Spotlight: Haven Recovery!

We had the pleasure of touring Haven Recovery with their CEO, Callan Montgomery and learning more about the impactful work Haven is doing right here in our community and were so impressed by the tremendous work they are doing.

Founded in 2017 by peers in recovery, Haven Recovery is a pioneer in supportive housing for individuals on the path to recovery.

A few things that stood out:
✅ Medical Respite House for individuals with both medical and housing needs
🏘️ 6 homes supporting a range of recovery journeys
🍱 Over 600 care bags with meals distributed monthly to those in need
📜 St. Louis’ first accredited recovery housing provider
🏥 Missouri’s first peer respite home (established 2020)
🛏️ Brought Recuperative Care to Missouri in 2022
🏡 Developed "next step" independent apartments for sustainable living
Their model is more than just housing, it’s about community, structure, and support. From live-in peer managers to weekly check-ins and peer coaching, Haven helps individuals build new routines in environments that foster growth, stability, and self-respect.

As they say at Haven, “All walks of recovery are welcome.” Whether someone is exploring sobriety, managing medical needs, or utilizing medication-assisted recovery, there is a safe place for them here.

If you're looking for a meaningful organization to support through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, I highly encourage you to learn more:
