HandsOn Bay Area
Non-Clinical
Organization Description
HandsOn Bay Area works to make positive change in our community while modeling an organizational culture that allows all team members to succeed. They believe “People Helping People” is one that is meant to be simple. We see an issue affecting our community, we identify an opportunity for change, and we get involved. We still firmly believe that simple acts of service have the power to unite communities, bridge gaps, and develop empathy for the more vulnerable among us, but we also recognize that our mission is not as simple as it may seem. Whether we are exercising our green thumb in a park, painting the walls of low-income housing units, or helping a fellow human break down the barriers that keep them from employment, no volunteer work is complete without a social justice lens that acknowledges the deep-seeded effect that Racism has on every one of these issue areas. For this reason, we accept the responsibility to learn, educate, give and do more.
