Our Work

Building a Better, More Equitable Future

We believe that everyone deserves to thrive. Whether that means being able to raise a family, feel healthier, grow a career, fight for justice, or live in a stable home. But right now, the systems we all rely on are designed to create enormous barriers for people based on their income, race, spoken language, gender identity, and more.

Our work across Homes, Health, and Voice aims to change that. By building more homes, helping tenants stay stably housed with the support of social work and cost savings through sustainability efforts, supporting physical and mental health through Health & Wellness programming, providing resources the Tenderloin community asks for like an after-school program and nutritious foods at corner stores, investing in local leadership, and supporting policy change.

Everyone deserves the basic human needs of Homes, Health, and Voice. Only together, can we make lasting equitable change and help more people live, grow, and thrive.

Living in an Supportive Home

Hear from tenants Sasha Howard, Siu Kwan Man Mui, Theresa Smith, and Ms. Shao Fong Liu describing their personal experience living in TNDC housing. TNDC staff share more about their work and values in serving the unique communities in each TNDC building.

Our Homes

Over 6,300 people live in our homes—families raising the next generation, seniors building their strength with Tai Chi, adults growing their career, and community members fighting for justice. People who want to live and thrive, but face enormous systemic obstacles to their basic human needs due to their income, race, spoken language, gender identity, and more.
